Ghana may have exited the ongoing FIFA Under 17 Women\u2019s World Cup in Uruguay at the quarter final stage, but captain Mukarama Abdulai believes there were many positives to take away from the competition.<\/p>\n
The Maidens were disappointingly beaten on penalties by Mexico, after the game ended 2-2 after regulation time, despite the Maidens leading twice.<\/p>\n
Ghana were highly tipped by many pundits to go all the way after their stellar performance in the group stages, picking up maximum points and scoring 10 goals in the process.<\/p>\n
Although the Maidens, in the end, were far off from winning the ultimate prize, Mukarama, who scored 7 goals at the competition, breaking Jane Ayieyam\u2019s record of the most goals scored by a Ghanaian at the competition, says she is comforted by her exploits at the competition.<\/p>\n
\u201cI\u2019m very happy, although I\u2019m also a bit sad that we didn\u2019t won the ultimate prize. I set a record at the competition and i\u2019m very proud of that,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cScoring 7 goals at a world cup is a big achievement and I\u2019m very happy.\u201d<\/p>\n
Mukarama is still 3 goals ahead of the nearest challenger for the top scorer award, and could still win it despite Ghana\u2019s elimination.<\/p>\n
