The second half saw improved performances from both sides, with Ghana’s captain Stella Nyamekye nearly breaking the deadlock with a powerful header, only to be denied by the Mexican goalkeeper. The friendly served as a crucial tune-up for both teams ahead of the World Cup, which kicks off on August 31.
