Black Maidens coach Abraham Allotey is excited about Ghana's chances of reaching a second FIFA U-17 World Cup.
Ghana have a two-leg decider to complete in the African qualifying series against Tunisia with the first leg coming on Saturday at the Ohene Djan Stadium in Accra.
Both sides have reached the final qualifying stage due to pull outs of their penultimate round opponents.
The Black Maidens were billed to have played Egypt while Tunisia's fixture was against DR Congo.
Ghana will host the first leg with the return game in Tunis, a a fortnight's time as the Black Maidens chase qualification.
For coach Allotey, it's an opportunity to make it a second successive appearance at the World Cup with the Under-17 side after guiding Ghana to the same tournament two year ago.
"Well, we are approaching this game as an an ordinary game. We are not putting pressure on them. We don't want them to go wrong but rather stick to our plan and capitalize on our opponents' mistakes.
"The team will have to show respect to our opponents and play cautiously. Playing cautiously doesn't mean that we would sit back but rather we would and take our chances when they come," Ghana's coach, Abraham Allotey said.
According to the Ghana coach, the chance of playing at the World Cup finals means much to the young girls as they set their sights on being part of the party in Trinidad & Tobago later in September 2010.
"I think, they are taking inspiration from the squad that made it to New Zealand (World Cup) squad two years ago. They have a target to reach Trinidad & Tobago for the World Cup.
"These are young girls who are hoping to bring glory their families and communities and their careers.
"They are students who are combining football with their education and for them to make it to the World Cup would be a plus. They have to take something positive back to school when they return to sit for their exams and there's nothing better than giving Ghana qualification."
Coach Abraham Allotey's side will be be hoping to make it a second successive World Cup appearance after Ghana's debut in New Zealand two years ago.
Sixteen African sides were involved at the first round stage of qualifying with the continent assured of two places at the World Cup finals.
