Forward Margaret Kunihira believes the Uganda U20 Women’s National team is in perfect shape ahead of the games against Ghana.
Uganda will face Ghana in the fourth round of the 2022 FIFA U20 Women’s World Cup Qualifiers, with the first leg slated for 22nd January at St. Mary’s Stadium, Kitende.
Kunihira is confident that they have been able to work on their fitness levels and all the players are up to the best standards.
“We have been in camp for a week now and what I can say is everyone is committed towards the games against Ghana. The coaches have tried to work on our fitness since we entered camp and we are ready for the task ahead.” She said.
Kunihira who has two goals in this qualifying campaign is aware that Ghana has been to the FIFA U20 Women’s World Cup before but that doesn’t faze her.
“We respect the fact that Ghana have been to the World Cup but doesn’t scare us at all. As players, we have the belief and confidence that we can overcome them.”
The winner between Uganda and Ghana will face either Ethiopia or Tanzania at the final qualifying phase.
This year’s edition will be hosted in Costa Rica in August.
