Once again Kenya's Harambee Starlets missed a penalty as they were bundled out of the 2024 Women's Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) qualifiers.

Starlets' dreams of returning to the continental showpiece were shattered after losing 1-0 to Botswana yesterday as the 'Mares' qualified on a 2-1 aggregate score in the final round of the qualifiers played at the Gaborone National Stadium in Botswana.
