Mali and Burkina Faso pulled out of the competition, therefore WAFU changed the format. There were only 3 teams in the competition and each team played the other twice.

Nigeria beat Ghana 3-1 in the previous match.

There were manu Ghanaians at the stadium yesterday.

WAFU is the West African Football Union.

Some people believe that WAFU is too big and powerful (there are many football power houses in West Africa), so the union has been divided into Zone A and Zone B. Nigeria is in Zone B.

Mali and Burkina Faso withdrew from the tournament and so there are only 3 teams left, Nigeria, Ghana and Benin and the organisers had to change the format of the competition.

Falconets Thrash Ghana To Win WAFU B U20 Girls’ Cup

Nigeria’s Falconets defeated Black Princesses of Ghana 3-0 to claim the title at the WAFU B U-20 Girls Tournament in Bénin Republic.

It was Moses Aduku’s side second win over Ghana in the competition.

The Falconets beat Black Princesses 3-1 when both teams clashed at the same Stade Omnisport d’Adjohoun last Saturday.

The Black Princesses were unable to stop the rampaging Nigerians who were 2-0 up before the 25th minute, courtesy goals by Akekoromowei (17th minute) and Alaba Olabiyi (24th minute).

Ramotalahi Kareem added the third on the hour mark.

Victory sprang the Falconets to nine points and plus eight goals difference (they have scored thrice in each of their three games).

They will take on Young Amazons of Benin in their last game of the competition on Wednesday.

Super Falcons star Okoronkwo’s hat-trick fires Toronto into NSL final

By Saheed Oyelakin
11th November 2025

Super Falcons forward, Esther Okoronkwo, delivered a stunning first-half hat-trick to send her club, AFC Toronto, into the inaugural Northern Super League championship game.

Her goals helped seal a 4-1 victory over the Montreal Roses in Monday’s snow-covered semifinal at York Lions Stadium.

Okoronkwo, who recorded eight goals and eight assists in 1,486 minutes during the regular season, wasted no time extending that form.

The 28-year-old struck in the 7th, 20th and 26th minutes to put the regular-season champions firmly in control, completing a 6-1 aggregate win over the visitors.

Lauren Rowe added Toronto’s fourth goal in the 83rd minute, while Tanya Boychuk netted Montreal’s consolation in the 74th.

Fans and pundits on social media praised Okoronkwo’s performance, with posts hailing her as “Africa’s next big star” and drawing comparisons to her impactful role in Nigeria’s run to the 2024 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations semifinals, where she scored three goals.

Recall that she was crowned Nigeria’s Baller of the Week in September after her hat-trick of goal contributions in Toronto’s 7-0 demolition of Vancouver Rise.

“It was a complete team effort. The work up top from (Kaylee Hunter), alongside Esther, was incredible until she came off, and she was the one who set up that first goal as well,” Toronto coach Marko Milanović said.

“As for Esther, we know what she’s capable of. She’s a big-time player who always delivers in big moments — we saw it at the Africa Cup of Nations, and now again in this semifinal. Hopefully, we’ll see more of that in the final, too.”

Toronto had won the first leg 2-0 on Nov. 1 at Stade Boreale in Montreal, with goals from Small and Hunter.

They will now face the Vancouver Rise in Saturday’s NSL Final at BMO Field.

Vancouver advanced after defeating Ottawa 5-4 on penalties, with their semifinal ending 3-3 on aggregate.

The second leg of the Toronto–Montreal tie had been scheduled for Sunday but was pushed to Monday because of heavy snowfall across the Toronto area.

Konquest:
Whoa! I saw the pictures and a video of the European diplomats who were kicked out of that building. I hope those folks would not relay messages to their governments to withhold the return of the precious Benin artifacts to Benin because of this protest.

These 2 videos posted right here had where those White diplomats were chased out edited out.

The situation should be de-escalated as soon as possible so that those artifacts can be properly preserved at the Royal Museum, while generating income from visiting tourists.

I saw a better video on Twitter yesterday, but I couldn't find it this morning.
