Twiga Stars' Historic Victory Against South Africa at WAFCON

TLDR

• They beat South Africa, beat them for the very first time ever at a WAFCON tournament.
• The Ivorians, returning to WAFCON for the first time in twelve years, scored through Nsira Ouedraogo just before half-time, then doubled their lead through an Ines Konan penalty in the second half.
• Twiga Stars beating South Africa for the first time in history, then narrowly missing out on a World Cup pathway: Barely a ripple.
• While all of the above was unfolding, our Twiga Stars, the women’s national football team, were on the other side of the continent, in Casablanca, Morocco.
• Our Twiga Stars daughters had already made history before that final match.
