Kenyan officials to officiate Flamingos, Bantwana’s Pretoria clash
The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has appointed Kenyan official, Josephine Wanjiku, as referee for next week’s FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup qualifier between Nigeria’s Flamingos and their South African counterparts, Bantwana, slated for Pretoria.
Cindy Barbara Dludlu from eSwatini will be the commissioner, with Moroco’s Khadija Rezzag will be the referee assessor.
The return leg of the qualifier will hold at the Remo Stars Stadium, Ikenne-Remo, on March 15, with the winner on aggregate progressing to the third round of the qualification campaign.
This year’s FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup (the competition becomes a yearly event from this year) will be hosted by Morocco from October 17 to November 8, with Africa to present five teams (including host nation Morocco) at the finals, which has also been expanded to a 24-nation championship.
The Flamingos, who reached the quarterfinals at last year’s FIFA U-17 Women’s World Cup finals in the Dominican Republic, have been in camp at the Remo Stars Institute, Ikenne-Remo for a couple of weeks in preparation for the clash with the Bantwana.
