AfroBasket 2015: D’ Tigress set to oust Mozambique for semis place


DTigers

NIGERIA’S D’ Tigress will today face Mozambique for a place in the semi-finals of the AfroBasket 2015 women championship in an attempt to grab the Rio 2016 Olympic ticket.

Three former winners as well as reigning champions Angola head­ed a group of eight teams that will do battle on today to reach the Af­roBasket Women 2015 Semi-Finals in Yaounde, Cameroon. Against the odds, Egypt – who received a wild card invitation to participate in the tournament – had suddenly become the team to watch out as they will take on tournament hosts Cameroon.
The question of the moment at Af­roBasket Women 2015 is: can Egypt become a giant beater?
Gabon, who returned to the com­petition after a decade-long absence, will take on Angola.
Without a doubt the highly-an­ticipated match-up will involve two former Africa champions when Sen­egal take on Mali.
