Strongest WAFCON Lineup In History

The 2024 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) is set to showcase the highest level of competition the tournament has ever seen. The 15th edition returns to Morocco, with exclusive coverage on beIN SPORTS beginning Friday, July 5.

Defending champions South Africa arrive with high expectations, but they’ll face fierce competition from nine-time winners Nigeria, led by superstar forward Asisat Oshoala. The Bay FC striker, formerly with Arsenal and Barcelona, is widely regarded as one of the greatest African players of her generation.

Zambia also enters as a serious contender, powered by 22-year-old striker Barbra Banda of Orlando Pride, who recently won the 2024 African Women’s Footballer of the Year after leading her team to the NWSL title.

Morocco Aims For Glory On Home Soil

After finishing runners-up in 2022, hosts Morocco will look to take the next step and lift the trophy in front of their fans. A win would mark a historic year for the nation, as they also prepare to host the men’s Africa Cup of Nations in December — also on beIN SPORTS.

With rising talent, seasoned stars, and competitive squads, this year’s WAFCON promises to deliver some of the most exciting football on the continent.
