WAFCON 2022: Senegal, Cameroon Secure FIFA Women's World Cup Playoff Ticket
The Lionesses of Cameroon and Senegal Women national team have sealed their place in the inter-continental playoffs for the 2023 Fifa Women’s World Cup after a narrow 1-0 victory over Botswana in their repechage clash at the 2022 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations in Rabat on Sunday.
Ajara Njoya scored the only goal of the game in the first half and Cameroon were largely in control, but did finish the game with 10 players after a late red card.
They joined Senegal in advancing to the 10-team global playoffs in New Zealand in February, where they will contest for the three remaining spots available at the finals.
The African duo join Taiwan, Thailand, Haiti and Panama, who have also booked their places in that tournament.
Senegal did so as they defeated Tunisia on penalties in an earlier repechage game at the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations on Sunday.
