Ghana U-20 Women’s football team, the Black Princesses, have been drawn against tough opponents in Group D of the FIFA U-20 World Cup to be hosted in Costa Rica.
The draw for the tournament held on Thursday saw the Princess drawn in Group D which has three times champions, USA, the Netherlands and current holders Japan who won the last edition in 2018.
