Ghana’s Black Princesses will begin their FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup campaign against Ecuador on Sunday, September 6, 2026, at the Arena Sosnowiec.

The Black Princesses will then face South Korea in their second Group C fixture on Wednesday, September 9, before concluding the group stage against France on September 12.

All three of Ghana’s group matches will kick off at 16:00 GMT at the Arena Sosnowiec.

The tournament will mark the Black Princesses’ eighth consecutive appearance at the FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup, highlighting Ghana’s consistent presence at the global youth competition.

However, the team will be hoping to go a step further this time by advancing beyond the group stage for the first time in their history.

With Ecuador, South Korea and France standing between Ghana and the knockout rounds, the Black Princesses will need strong performances from the opening game to keep their hopes of making history alive.
