An exciting start is on the cards as the FIFA U-20 Women�s World Cup opens with Ghana meeting the hosts, Canada on Tuesday. The Black Princesses will be up against a rather partisan crowd at the Toronto National Soccer Stadium in a Group A contest. Bashir Hayford has been preparing his Ghana team in the Ontario capital ahead of the tournament with Alice Danso sounding bullish ahead of opening fixture against the Young Canucks. �We have been preparing very well for the tournament,� Danso said. �We are getting all the support we need and I am sure that when the competition starts in Canada, we will be ready.� The Young Canucks expect an explosive start with the Black Princesses. �Ghana is a very fast, physical team,� said midfielder Jessie Fleming. �They have very technical forwards. They�re definitely going to be difficult to play (against). They�re unpredictable at times. Ghana will also have group games against Finland and 2006 tournament winners, Korea DPR to come in Toronto.
