Africa-Press – Uganda. <\/strong><\/span>In November last year, Uganda U-20 women\u2019s team had what turned out to be timely reality check when they lost 3-2 to Ethiopia in the finals of the age group\u2019s Cecafa tournament at Fufa Technical Centre \u2013 Njeru.<\/p>\n

The team was so sure of themselves as they had lost just one game in 20 appearances since they were at U-17 level.<\/p>\n

That was an U-17 World Cup qualifier in which they lost 2-1 to Tanzania in Dar-es-Salaam. But they quickly overturned that result with a 5-0 win at home.<\/p>\n

Last month, the experience against Ethiopia helped them oust South Africa from the third round of the World Cup qualifiers \u2013 with a 1-0 home win and a 0-0 draw in Johannesburg.<\/p>\n

\u201cSouth Africa have the name so that was a good test in many ways.<\/p>\n

First beating them at home and then having to protect that narrow lead away from here was not an easy task.<\/p>\n

That has built the mental strength of the players and I believe they can go through any situation now,\u201d coach Ayub Khalifa said.<\/p>\n

Khalifa\u2019s words will put to test as they play Ghana, in the fourth round of the World Cup qualifiers, a side that has players that participated in the first Caf Women\u2019s Champions League in Cairo and a country that has qualified for all U-20 World Cups since 2010.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe know of their experience at this level but at the end of the day, these are the teams you have to beat to get to the World Cup.<\/p>\n

You cannot start worrying about their experience but you instead use it to motivate your players to play better,\u201d Khalifa added.<\/p>\n

The Ghanaians were expected to arrive yesterday for the first leg of the qualifiers due Saturday at St. Mary\u2019s Stadium Kitende.<\/p>\n
