:point_right:t6: Made history by becoming the first-ever woman to officiate a match at AFCON.

:point_right:t6: The 33-year-old Rwandan was the fourth official on Monday as Guinea took on Malawi.

:point_right:t6: She has a rich history in football officiating, having also taken charge of games in other major tournaments before, including the Women’s World Cup, Africa Women’s Cup of Nations, and the CAF Women’s Champions League.

Salima Mukansanga is our #WCW today!
