i'm the head coach of banana banana. and i'm also an african champion. i. congratulations. alright. we are talking about the state of women's football on the african continent. you can be in that conversation as well. what do you want to know about african football from a women's perspective, how is the sport doing comment section right here. be part of today's show. i'm going to show you a picture of deseret working quite recently at the women's african cup of nations. deseret. what would you doing here? what was going for your head? that is a moment when i'm not happy. when i'm not happy and i'm just looking and seeing where i can contribute. you know to him, he's laughing because he knows exactly what, what that picture looks like. 10 b. chevy when your coach looks like this. what, what is she yelling out at the place?

it depends. it depends on what we have done. but i think it would be a moment to a should be expecting us to be, you know, screen or in a moment where we're supposed to not be getting a call again. so i know that look and it's not a really good look. yeah. so we, can we go from serious desert a 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 african 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 that 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, you start? well, honestly, when you think about the investment that south africa as a country has put into women's football over the years, and especially in the last 30 years, it only befitting that the one the see as well. it's a story that replicates and that shows that there are no shortcuts to success for a very long time. so africa was the almost team, you know. but finally, they turned on that switch and you know, you could feel even at half time,

busier and know you could feel that, you know, that africa have an edge of moral grade 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 the results. it's just as simple as that. jenny, i'm just wondering about who the best female football teams on the african continent can do 1234 for us please. up. but who bought things on the continent, nigeria, south africa, queen. at the moment, moral co and edge in that as well. zombie i come our own funds will not like what i said. oh ok. so in the last few years that has been real strategy, real efforts to improve african football for winning. tell me, what have you seen? what difference is it now as a player on the african continent, because i tell somebody will come back to you. we need to do some playing around

with your headphones and they come right back to you. and let me just pass that along to your coach, deseret. what's changed in the last few years, i think has been a campaign, a strategy from the confederation of african football to really ruin up the state of women's football on the african continent. what have you seen? well i think it 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 cloud now. everyone wanting to win that lead to go out and take things out with regards to westcan. it was an amazing westcan while organized. i mean, you look at 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 when anyway, 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 base. when you look at the, they use teams also going to the, to the woke up the mean seems going to the woke up and that that's when you put in the basement. you look, molly was not they total guinea was not they and you had you had for debbie don't you know way where they out of place in the competition either so refreshing. it's well as they come on board improved, we even have a female the pre going to the means will cup and i think she was fantastic in the final as well. the organization is been talking about the development of the game in africa for women's football. this is barbara talking fees. she's a, as ambien for this is up 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 they say she

is part of the african players women is now playing blood. everyone wants to hide and play proficient way. think now it's no people coming to know that. okay. and then the other level. so i think it's, after i says, we mean to me though i so whatever we want to confidence fair, 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 speech in africa. i mean my just had one that 9 times up until the last few years been my g o. m s. premier league at this point in time is one of the oldest women lead for bowling 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 across to asha or to 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. busy 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 working 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. alpha one 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 goes and you have a yellow 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 safa medi to the semifinals. yes. or africa and dumbbell and also trying to who are 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 i've insisted for the past couple of years that for you to come to the course after turn i meant you have to have a female head coach. and that sort of brings perspective to the whole development program. i've got some new 2 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 for finding 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 sand 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 used 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. i got back into the conversation. jenny,

i've got you chief question, which i know that you will be out to answer here. a k says, improve the officiating. i stop watching. well, that is a shame. but if the officiating so bad on some games, 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. their dream, like fantastic formations are quite clear that does re and the likes do. and then there's one more complete and you are never going to win when it comes to funds and wanting that. what is a valid cause, then? that should not be the reason why. tens of thousands of young girls in africa will not get the opportunity to show kids of women's football or women's sports on the continent. the learning cove for mistakes to be done if that has been cool when funds like i'm the commenter on youtube and many more, but there is a step and that can be improved for sure. let me just show this to she tempe. this

is, these are your, your, your 40 mates here. i love this video. okay. this is a celebration video of, 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 when y'all been yona has some better than the but found out before i, which is the males football team. you hurry back to south africa, extraordinary football players. but you don't get paid the same amount. thoughts. the 1st question i have right now with anyone in this interview or this panel discussion. what else should woman footballers do in order to get your mission? let jeannie said nigeria is the best crowned woman team in africa. and the state of womans football in nigeria hasn't even reached what their mission or tim represents

in sort of because we just have been launched a little bit. but still, that doesn't represent what the mission of to, you know, play. and what we did know with, with, with banana being african back. so there's a one questionnaire like what more women to the woman from bullets have to do in order to be taken seriously. and this goes out to federation with the sponsors, even families, and 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? it's amazing. it can be there in 2022. there still sexism involved in women's sport and particularly in football. how do you combat that? how do you tackle that? is a really 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 the european matches with the best long stadium refilled. not even men could fill up just again. so someone has to, you know, take charge and be to say, no we, it's time we need to support women, but it's time we need to bring a lot of opportunities for when football is and is the same in africa. we saw everywhere the upcoming is being held stadiums been, you did mention that in morocco, so make sure that we're doing people watching but only when the home too much clean . so how do they make programs way? either teams can go to different countries to support because it's not only, you know, finances that have to stop. i mean, can cannot do the sponsors in the countries building. i an area a way that people can be able to clean and fund so that 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 go. so fourty shall guess, i feel like there's at the moment with a cast, the confederation of african football that there is a carrot in a stick approach. ok? so the current approach is the 4 qualifiers from the women's african combinations. they get to go to the well cup, boom, they're 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 cord easy. and she coaches a s k gully. he, she is in february of this year when, when of jobs are my divorce? 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 are high up in the government were leading by example on the field, and we were following. so i became a coach to young realty. are you? well, there's a range of, there's almost like a 2 point approach to how you get the game of football for women on the african continent up to a certain standard. how to keep it growing. have you seen that idea of the government helping funding the women's game? is that helpful? think that, you know, you need to put yourselves on the, by the biggest thing is being given the opportunity. i mean, i'll go ahead a female coach. i'm not, they've got a male coach uganda at a female coach. you know? so it's been giving that opportunity and trusting them. and that is what goes off or does. while they implement that the, that the female coach, my head coach must be a female. even if 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 me if we are doing that. and i think it's important because when you look on the continent, the amino quality female coaches, but they're not being given an opportunity. and i'll see the ration took a bold step to, you know, keep opportunities to, to all our national teams. are you 17 use coach by a former captain? some people do, do you 20 coach by a former player, a 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, there's a 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 has jumped and it's not the same price money as the mold team. so we don't realize the magnitude of our victory. all things have changed and

all things are going to change. i also you the, you, you, you nice are in university of south africa. it's now given birth is to all 23 plays that qualified. you know, that one though the westcan. so slowly but surely things are changing, but i agree with team b. i don't know what more we've been there to do, what more we have to do to get the sponsors coming on board. and maybe somebody who works in sponsorship will regularly. 6 goes out and mix with sponsorship for winning sport can tell us what is missing today. let me put this. i all right, go 1st and then jenny and you go 2nd. make it, make it brief lady. so right. go ahead. okay, i'll go 1st. so 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 the entire team is representing a country, the sauce 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 not getting the same amount as the men? i say you don't just ask that question. you can call every story. it's a return, correct? and next, next question. all right, there you go. jeanine. you knew the answer to that finish? go ahead. no, i was going to tell read, i'm pen, be that women don't need to do anything on the work. do not interest anything. you're not the one that the 5 you meet the millions of dollars every other week. before the women ask a couple of 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 stars up from the people will leave the moral cool that needs to be kept up his job and the country needs to do bad. so don't do anything. women sit down a queen,

do nothing. some interesting thoughts hear from you. chip 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 and tastic. yes, women's football is rapidly gaining momentum in africa. this is how you 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 heavy my advice to the young ones will be to fresh look opportunities. if you don't have, would you go to school because my football is growing? and if you where you will be school always 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. i can be and deseret, an usher and jeanine for talking about women's football on the african continent. i'm gonna leave it with 2 journalists who are very encouraged 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 player makes an exception and game with the national cham morgan. i ching about her talents and her liver to play with her to play in europe. i found the woman african curb shouldn't be a good living to make us very broad. her or old continents we me for both does change perceptions as to years of that. i've been here for so long, you know, about what women can do, african women can do, and will african girls going to do what they can do?

and so well, when people does best, it's show us it. or when we 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. maya gog, whose last show is to day. thank you, my god, your spectacular. we wish you every success for where you go to next. good luck. out his ear is investigative unit goes undercover in the caribbean, we don't use the word bribe. we'll just use a token of appreciation, exposing trade of diplomatic passports today. it's $250.00 unless you're hot than
