The Ghana Football Association has officially announced a change in venue for the Olympic Games qualifier between Ghana and Zambia. Originally slated to take place at the Baba Yara Sports Stadium in Kumasi on Friday, February 23, the match has been relocated to the Accra Sports Stadium.

The decision to shift the venue was prompted by scheduling conflicts, as three sanctioned high-profile games were set to occur at the Baba Yara Stadium within a three-day period. Medeama SC and Dreams FC are engaged in two CAF inter-club games on the weekend of February 23-25, 2024. Medeama SC will host Al Ahly in the TotalEnergies CAF Champions League on Friday, February 23, while Dreams FC will face Club Africain on Sunday, February 25, 2024.

The Black Queens, having successfully advanced by eliminating Guinea and Benin in the previous rounds of the qualifying series, will now host the first leg encounter of the third round at the Accra Sports Stadium. The match is scheduled for a 5:00 pm kickoff.

This venue change ensures optimal scheduling and provides a suitable setting for the crucial Olympic Games qualifier between Ghana and Zambia.
