National women’s football team, Harambee Starlets, will make its second appearance at the 2018 Africa Women Cup of Nations slated for November 17-December 2 in Ghana, following Equatorial Guinea’s disqualification.

This follows yesterday’s Confederation of African Football Confederation (Caf) decision to uphold Football Kenya Federation’s appeal against six ineligible Equatorial Guinea players, who featured in their two-legged final qualification round.
