Her clinical touch in front of goal showcased both confidence and sharp movement, effectively putting the result beyond doubt before halftime.
With a commanding three goal cushion, Ghana managed the second half with maturity, controlling possession and limiting Russia’s attacking opportunities. The depth in their squad became increasingly evident as they maintained tempo and discipline throughout.
Ajegipena Zakaria added the final flourish in the 88th minute, sealing a statement win that reflected Ghana’s attacking variety and defensive solidity. The late goal was a fitting reward for a performance defined by precision and purpose.
The victory follows Ghana’s 3-0 triumph over Hong Kong in their opening fixture, meaning they now boast two wins from two matches in the Pink Ladies Cup.
