SuperSport has assembled a stellar line-up to anchor the upcoming Africa Women Cup of Nations, starting in Morocco on Saturday.
Morocco, Uganda, Burundi, Zambia, Senegal, Togo, Nigeria (champions), Tunisia, Burkina Faso, Botswana, Cameroon and South Africa will compete for the 14th edition of the Cup.
The Top Four teams will then qualify for the World Cup in Australia and New Zealand, while two more teams will advance to the inter-confederation play-offs.
Analysts and anchors
Seasoned broadcasters Carol Tshabalala and Thato Moeng will alternate as show anchors with Mpho Letsholonyane assisting with opening-day duties.
Analysts will be Maude Khumalo (former Banyana player turned football instructor), Nthabeleng Modiko (football coach), Ummukulthoum Bakare (physiotherapist), Jerry Tshabalala (Mamelodi Sundowns women’s coach) and Melissa Kape Saili (trainer with Football Association of Zambia and former player in Zambia).
Celebrated former Banyana star Amanda Dlamini will be a roving correspondent in Morocco.

Magazine shows
The Confederation of African Football will make supplementary programming available, which the SuperSport programming department will schedule – these will consequently be promoted.
