NIGERIA’s THREE-PEAT

The Tigress of Nigeria showed once again in September in Yaounde why they are the best team on the continent, having won the Women’s AfroBasket for the third straight time, a feat only achieved by Senegal in 1970’s.

After beating Senegal in the previous two finals (2017 and 2019), Nigeria proved too strong for a young and combative Mali team in the final, extending their winning streak to 18-0  dating back to the 2015 Women’s AfroBasket Semi-Finals held in Yaounde.
