WAFCON Showdown!

In this latest episode of The COSAFA Show, we look ahead to the
quarterfinals of the TotalEnergies CAF Women’s Africa Cup of
Nations in Morocco this week, and glance back at the Region 5
Games that were played in Windhoek.


Two of our COSAFA sides have advanced to the knockout rounds of
the WAFCON competition, including defending champions South
Africa, who face Senegal on Saturday. But before that, Zambia are
in action against nine-time winners Nigeria on Friday in what
will truly be a test of their championship credentials.


We will hear from both of their coaches ahead of the crunch
knockout games.


Botswana narrowly missed out on a place in the quarterfinals
despite a 2-1 win over Tunisia in their final Group B game but
leave with their heads held high.


We also check in with the victorious South Africa men’s coach
Vela Khumalo after they lifted the Region 5 Games crown, which
served as the COSAFA championship in that age-group this year.
Although an Under-20 competition, South Africa triumphed with an
Under-17 selection as they prepare for the FIFA Under-17 World
Cup in Qatar later this year, making their achievement all the
more impressive.
