the line message, i have made that mark on english for falling history. i'm encouraging more women and go to get involved in the game. it's been a long journey from the days when women were banned from playing to blazing a trail in the euro's battling sexism and on the funding with many hoping that this when will be the kicks to place women's football on an equal playing field to men's . i think it's critical that we start to really think about what happens right at the bottom, m p in schools. for me, this is about the government. this is about the government taking seriously spool and making sure that goes across the country are actually able to participate and play even just have the basics. and from there we'll get exactly the same that the boys get across the country. inspiring a new generation to the game here, where it all began. so the guy echo algebra, london is more in everything we're covering england's victory, but also days of

a should be expecting us to be, you know, schooling or in a moment where we're supposed to not be getting a goal against. so i know that look, and it's not a really good look. yeah. so we, can we go from serious deseret, very serious here to this desert. articulate that small, those thoughts. that energy. it was, it was a moment that it's very difficult to describe when you have just become an applicant champion. we so many things are going your mind where you actually showing people back home and thanking them for the support. thank you. everyone, the support that you and i still have a very big smile. i can stop smiling. i sometimes people with my middle right next to me and i want to pinch myself, you know, is this really true? it's something that we have worked for for the last 4 years and it's finally to come through. so yeah, something that you, you almost tell someone pinch me,

pinch me. so i am thinking usher and jenny, this moment here where there was so much pride from south africans that their national female football team came out as champions. what does that mean? is that a big meaning to where football is on the african continent for women? usher youth start? well honestly, when you think about the investment that africa as a country has, you know, put into women's football over the years. and especially in the last 30, is it only be fitting that the one. this is 11, it's a story that replies kate's. and that shows that there are no shortcuts to success for very long time. so i forgot was the almost team you know. but finally, they turned on that switch and you know, you could feel even at half time busier. know you could feel that, you know, that africa have an edge and moral going that final. and i'm so happy for everyone that has contributed to that journey. it's just a clear message, you know,

out there that you have to invest and when you invest in women's football, you'll get their results. it's just as simple as that to need. i'm just wondering about who the best female for or teens on the african continent. can you do 1234 for us please. up football teams on the continent. nigeria, south africa, queen. at the moment, morrow co and as well zombie our come our own found one not like what i said. oh ok . so in the last few years that has been real strategy, real effort to improve ask him football for women. hamby. what have you seen? what difference is it now as a player on the african continent? this can be what come back to you. we need to do some playing around with your headphones and come right back to you. let me

just pass along to your coach, deseret. what's changed in the last few years, that has been a campaign, a strategy from the confederation of african football to really bring up the state of women's football on the african continent. what have you seen while i think that started with a capital wins champions league coming on board? i think that was a huge shift. was a huge change. you can see the shifting the clubs now. everyone wanting to win that league to go out and take things out with regards to westcan. it was an amazing westcan. well organized. i mean, you look at the, the stadium that was packed out for the final morocco organize the really fantastic tournament. i also looked at, you know, all the new club, new countries that have come on board. and none of them went any way. you know, the schools were, were not that big. so everybody has gone and done the work. a lot of investment has been done by morocco and they wouldn't, they would that,

that they're not in the final by chance. you know, they put in a locked in the basement. you look at the, the youth teams also going to the, to the woke up the mean seems going to the woke up. and that's when you put in the basement. you look, molly was not they equal total guinea was no day and you had, you had 4 different towns and you know, way where they out of placing the competition either. so they putting it while it's come on board, improve even as a female, the pre going to the means will cup and i think she was fantastic in the final as well. the organization, the administrative, they've all stepped up a level i am going to bring in barbara bond to here. barbara, panda is been talking about the development of the game in africa for women's football. this is barbara talking. she's, she's of dan, be in football. this is barbara talking to years ago and then to me, and i'm going to come off the back of you and, and just wondering if things have got even better since barbara said this, he,

she has most of the, of a god blessed women's are now playing a blood everyone wants to with hide and play proficient with my think. no. it's now people coming to know that. ok, i think on food was all there. the only other live were so i think it's up to or i says we means to me though i soft whatever we wanted confidence there. but all the players ready to go on to a bigger stage that goes outside of the african content. if you're truly honest, janine what else is needed? what is needed is improving our stage in africa. i mean, my teacher had one that 9 times up until the last few years been my job. and that's primarily at this point in time is one of the all this women lead to football league in the world. so we will come back to jenny because we've

just lost her. she just froze in there. so i'm going to just cut fro that question . acosta. asha ayesha help me pick up here. what else is needed to improve the sport? not just in one part of the content but all over so that we've got a continent white game for women that is really worth watching and spectacular and brings up the young people as well. it's interesting you asked this question 4 years ago in 2018 in marcus marco i was very honored to be tired of walking group that was at the cashed women football symposium. the very fast of its kind and in this worship that had all you know, administrators and everyone was very passionate about women's football from the african continent came together to put up a strategy. and this strategy, one of the 1st things that a deed was to have a women's football department at the concentration of africa, football in egypt. and in this department you have people work up every day to

think about women's football. that means creating programs for fema referees creating programs for you know, female coaches and then walking together with the regional association. then when i say regional and for example of africa is in the core suffer region, which is in the southern part of, of africa. and you talking about, you know, stuffing which is sick offer. well for which is west african region is a and beach and then you have, you know, which is north africa and unified, which is central africa. so when you have consistently tournament, you know, for on the 17 and the 20 girls and you have a yearly competition for the senior national teams, these, you know, brings together players and they continue to get these exposure that then can be transformed into the national team. at the end of the day, and that has played a huge role in getting, you know, teams to understand what it means to compete at the highest level. we can talk about course, offered to be very specific with africa and banana, banana

r n in this region. it's not by mistake. the 2 teams from cor suffer medi to the semifinals. yes or africa and dumbbell. and also one who were playing for the very 1st time got to the quarter finals. you know, so this kind of set up helps everyone holistically and specifically focus suffer who have insisted for the past couple of years that for you to come to the course after tournament, you have to have a female head coach. and that sort of brings perspective to the whole development, you know, program. i've got some new to questions here. i see you nodding, so i'm just going to pick up with some of the questions from our audience. so dividers says that today's topic is really essential, especially after watching the u. a for women's league attendance wasn't impressive until the finals football fans in africa have to patronize the women's games. deseret. thoughts on that?

look, it was only morocco that had peptide stadiums for the rest of the competition. it wasn't really peck taught. and i think if we talking about supporting, we also need to support in this 10. you know, people are passionate, but they need to support in the stand because it's not just on the field where the game needs to grow. it's of the people with a game needs to grow as well. but i think also this westcan, i think they'll be more fans in the stadium. one other thing that i wanted to add as well is if we need to improve on the african continent. i think kathy needs to make sure that all inmates structured leaks, and then the next step off the that is to professionalize the sport because we can only compete with the rest of the world if we are doing similar things to the rest of the world. and at the moment, most of the leagues in africa is played on an amateur basis. we play as work and train off to work with teams, maybe practice twice a price. and that is not enough. i feel i've got a company, jenny,

back into the conversation. jenny, i've got you chief question, which i know that you will be out to answer hear a case said, improve the officiating. i stop watching. well, that is a shame, but it's the official thing so bright on some games that the women have to play on the african continent that people would start watching. today. people always need to have reasons and improve the quality of football than that. doing like fantastic formations on quality that does re, i'm like do, and then there's one more complete and you are never going to win. when you come to fun, i'm wondering what is a valid concern that should not be the reason why tens of thousands of young girls in africa will not get your chief showcase exactly what they have an investment that's putting to them because of a handful of people and that's what companies to improve. what he does need to improve is not make the biggest stage of women, football or women sport on the continent. the learning calls for mistakes to be done. if that has been cool when funds like i'm the comment on youtube and many

more what, there is a step and that can be improved for sure. i should go ahead. let me just show this if you tempe, this is these are your, your, your 40 mates. here and i love this video, okay, this is a celebration video of you and your teammates here and the dance is on fire. i am wondering though, when you are in the locker rooms and you're talking about certain issues, just pay parity. come up to me because banana banana has i'm better than the before before, which is the males football team. you put laurie back to south africa, extraordinary football players, but you don't get paid the same amount thoughts. the 1st question i have with anyone in this interview or this panel discussion. what else should woman footballers do in order to get rocket mission?

allegheny said nigeria is the best crowd. are women's team in africa? and the state of womans were born in nigeria hasn't even reached what their mission or tim represents. yes. and sort of we go, we just have been launched hollywood bed. but still, that doesn't represent what the mission ought to play. and what we just did know with, with, with banana bringing up condo. so there's the one question i know what more she, woman to the woman for bullets have to do in order to be taken seriously. and this goes out to federations, to sponsor, to even families, because they're all in other countries. girls are not allowed to play football. girls are not allowed to do certain sport. what else are we supposed to do? why are we being put in this box, or what we can do, and what we can do is amazing. can be the ends 2022. they're still sexism involved in women's sport and particularly in football. how do you combat that?

how do you tackle that? it is a very difficult question, but i think from where i'm standing, we just need to perform. we just need to be in the south and eventually, you know, the world can not noise long time. we'll look at the champions league or you can match is where the best long stadium will not even men could fill up just again. so someone has to, you know, take charge and be able to say no, we, it's time we need to support women from bullets. it's time we need to bring a lot of opportunities for when for us and is the same in africa we. so if you were, the upcoming is being held stadiums been, you did mention that in morocco, so make sure that we're doing all people watching but only when the home team was playing. so how do we make programs with other teams can go to different countries to support because it's not only, you know, finances that have to stop. i mean,

can, can not, they are the sponsors in the countries building in an area a way that people can be able to put in and find sort of when it's time for big tournaments, you have support the team tools they have support, then we don't have to rely on the local, you know, friends to only go support the team, shall guess. i feel like this at the moment with a kathy confederation of african football that there is a carriage in a stick approach. ok. so the carrot approach is the for qualifiers from the women's african combinations they get to go to the walk up there. and then the stick approach is if you don't have a female football team, you can enter their competitions as a male football team that is intense and bold. and we bring in another idea for how there can be more coaches, more women in the game of football on the african continent. and this is from a coach court easy. and she coaches a s k galli. hey,

she is in february of this year. well, when of jobs are my and what it was, what motivated me to become a coach was the government's policy of encouraging women to take an interest in sports, especially soccer. the women who were high up in the government were leading by example on the field. and we were following, so i became a coach to young realty ah, where you were. there's a range that's almost like an a 2 point approach to how you get the game of football for women on the asking content up to a certain standard. how to keep it growing. have you seen that idea of the government helping fund in the women's game? is that helpful? i think that is very helpful. i also think that, you know, you need to put yourselves on the, but the biggest thing is being given the opportunity. i remember algeria had a female coach. i'm not going to mail coach uganda at a female coach. you know,

so it's been giving that opportunity and trusting them, and that is what software does. while they implement that the, that the female coach might not, the head coach must be a female. even you have a mo coach assisting. and in that way, the coaches getting expedient, but it's being given that opportunity that track and i think not many if they are doing that. and i think it's important because when you look on the continent, the mini quality female coaches, but they're not being given an opportunity. an open ration took a bold step to, you know, give opportunities to, to all our national teams. are you? 17 is coach by a former captain. some people do, do you 20 coach by a former player job, a little boy, and we sort of interact all the time, but it's being given that opportunity. but i think when i look at the narrative is changing the competition in cape town called the coca cola cup. and before you've

got the under 18 boys, you've got senior women and senior men and the senior woman's prize money was less than the you. 18 boys, but all of a sudden the prize money is jumped and it's not the same price money as the male team. so we don't realize the magnitude of our victory. all things change and all things are going to change. i also, you, the, you, you, you nice are university of south africa has now given birth to all to, into the play is that qualified, you know, that one though the westcan. so slowly but surely things are changing, but i agree with tim b. i don't know what more we need to do, what more we have to do to get the sponsors coming on board. and maybe somebody worked and sponsorship regularly goes out and mix with sponsorship for winning sport can tell us what is missing. today let me put this, i all right, goes 1st and then jenny, you go 2nd, make it, make it brief ladies. all right, go ahead. okay. go 1st for me,

i never really get to understand the issue about the difference in pay because here's the thing. if a player and the coach and then entire team is representing a country, the son of son is the government because you're wearing, in this case, for example, you're wearing the south african flag, you're wearing the flag. so why is it that the women, i'm not getting the same amount as the men? i think your question and don't just ask that question. you could answer it because every, sorry, it's a return chris and next, next question. all right, there you go. janine, you knew the answer to that didn't go ahead. no, i was going to tell you, i can be that women don't need to do anything on the work. do not interested anything. you're not the one that the 5 you the meet the millions of dollars every other week for what the. before the women ask a couple mission, every country that can women, couple of nation do not marketing within the country for people who will fly from

the country to the stadium. to feel the, the fact that the people will lead a moral call that needs to improve, doesn't job the expertise and the countries needs to do bed. so don't do anything. women sit down as queen do nothing. some interesting thoughts hear from you chip, i'm guy is not impressed with women soccer guy. what century are you living in? and then we've got look, let's see. sponsors need to come to the party and support the ladies a manual manual untasted. yes, women's football is rapidly gaining momentum in africa. it is high, appreciative the african women and the african continent as a how cost, as whoever loves soccer knows very well. what african women with that sport can do . it can be profitable as well. they should have done it already. there's a thought here time be about what you want for the younger generation coming up. if you had to leave them with one piece of advice or inspiration, what would you tell them? tell me. my advice to the young ones will be to fresh look

opportunities if you don't have a would you go to school because women's football is growing and if you where you're the school owners be there, and i think it's one thing that in africa as a whole, yeah, we can read, you know, go, goes hand in hand with school so you won't be able to be a person that goes well, you won't be able to develop that. okay. thank you. tandy and deseret and usher. and janine, for talk about women's football on the african continent. i'm gonna leave you with 2 journalists who are very in college, about where the sport is right now. i, sam and julie. my cellphone, its player, is taking notes for the month 1st and the fix of play mix exception and game with the national to morgan. i ching about her talents and her little play was have to play in europe. i found the woman african curb shouldn't be a good living to make us very broad or old continents. we me for both does

change perceptions as tears are that are being helpful. so long, you know, about what women can do. african women can do and will african girls going to do on what they can do. and so what i mean from what does best is show us it. all women can do almost anything they won't put their minds to. it'll the show has been produced by maya gar. she is the senior producer of the stream. i don't normally tell you who produces the stream because it is a team effort like women's football. it takes a whole team, but there's always an m v p. and that most valuable player is senior producer, my agog who's last show is to day. thank you, my god, you're spectacular. we wish you every success for where you go to next. get us. ah, ah.

ah. ah.
