National women’s football team, Harambee Starlets head coach David Ouma has lamented his team’s mental weakness.

The coach said it was the main reason for the early elimination from this year’s Africa Women’s Cup of Nation after their second successive Group B defeat to Mali (3-1) in Limbe, Cameroon on Wednesday night.
