WAFCON: Nigeria get Morroco Semi Final hurdle. South Africa to face Zambia.
Nigeria’s Super Falcons will face hosts Morocco in the Semi Final of the ongoing 2022 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations.
The match will hold on Monday 18th July 2022 at 9 pm (Nigerian Time ). To reach this stage, Nigeria gathered 6 points to finish 2nd in Group C. The Super Falcons then continued their dominance over arch-rivals Cameroon with a 1-0 Quater Final win on Thursday night.
The Atlas Lionesses of Morocco on their part finished top of Group A with three wins from three games before a hard-fought 2-1 Quater Final victory over Botswana on Wednesday night to reach the last four.
On paper, 9 times Women’s Africa Cup of Nations winners Nigeria will be favorites to emerge victorious in the Semi Final but Morocco have proven a worthy host who have done enough to earn a first-ever FIFA Women’s World Cup and could disrupt Nigeria’s hopes of a title defense in Morocco.
South Africa will face Zambia in the other Semi-Final. Both teams are unbeaten in the competition to this stage and will kickstart Semi Final hostilities by 6 pm on Monday 18th July 2022.
All Four Semi-finalists will represent Africa at the 2023 FIFA Women’s World Cup.
