Head coach of the Black Princesses of Ghana, Yussif Basigi, has revealed that his side was intimidated amidst bad officiating in the first leg of their last round of world cup qualifier in Yaoundé.
The Princesses played a 1-1 with draw in a very cagey encounter but Mr. Basigi says his side could have gotten more in Cameroon but for bad officiating and intimidation.

The Cameroonians opened the scores in the 11th minute through Alexandra Takounda only for the Ghanaians to cancel out the scores by prolific forward Princella Adubea.
The results, according to the former Hasaacas manager, would have been better but for poor officiating and intimidation.
“We were at the receiving end of poor officiating. All the calls from the referee in the game was against us but I am happy with how the Princesses motivated themselves after the goal and got the equalizer”, He added.

The princesses began their world cup qualification campaign last September by beating Algeria and Kenya to record a 20-1 goal aggregate.
