WAFCON 2024: A win for South Africa and Mali | Group standing

Greetings, sports and non-sports lovers!I trust you're doing well.


Yesterday marked the conclusion of Matchday 1 in the ongoing WAFCON 2024 in Morocco. Below are the reviews and scorelines of the matches played yesterday:

South Africa vs Ghana

This match was expected to be a tightly contested one since both nations are quite strong in women's football—even though the South Africans had the upper hand, being the defending champions.

But hey, the match didn't go as expected. South Africa scored twice in the first half, and the two goals came within a 6-minute interval. The scoreline remained unchanged until the end. It was as if the Ghanaian ladies went there to play and dance instead of playing football. A total mess-up!


Mali vs Tanzania

This game ended just as I had expected. Malian football has improved a lot, and it’s now expected of them to pose a real challenge to any big nation they face.


How the groups stand after Game 1:

Group A:

Senegal – 3 points, group leaders with a +4 goal difference

Morocco – 1 point, second in the group with 1 goal

Zambia – 1 point, third in the group with 1 goal

DR Congo – 0 points, last in the group with 0 goals


Group B:

Nigeria – 3 points, group leaders with a +3 goal difference

Algeria – 3 points, second in the group with 1 goal

Botswana – 0 points, third in the group with 0 goals

Tunisia – 0 points, last in the group with 0 goals


Group C:

South Africa – 3 points, group leaders with a +2 goal difference

Mali – 3 points, second in the group with 1 goal

Tanzania – 0 points, third in the group with 0 goals

Ghana – 0 points, last in the group with 0 goals


Today is a rest day, and Matchday 2 fixtures will kick off tomorrow.

Thanks for reading.
