The Super Falcons of Nigeria are destined to rekindle their longtime rivalry with Banyana Banyana in South Africa in the semifinals of the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (Wafcon) Morocco 2024.
The attentive clash with impatience was confirmed on Saturday evening after defending the champions of South Africa defeated Senegal 4-1 in a hatched penalty shooting, following a tie without goals in the regulation time at the Stade Municipal, Oudja.
With both teams that boast rich stories and ferocious encounters in African women’s football, the imminent semifinal, scheduled for Tuesday, has already been nicknamed the “final before the final”. The game promises a high drama while Nigeria aims to recover continental domain while South Africa tries to defend their crown.
