“We never anticipated this surprise from our Vice President and I wish to extend our profound gratitude to the Veep for this gift. We thank him very much and may the good Lord replenish him on our behalf. We are giving him our highest assurance that we shall go and deliver in Cote d’Ivoire” Captain Tweneboah said.
The Ghanaian double winners will start their historic Women’s Champions League qualifying journey in neighbours Ivory Coast on August 20.
