00:01Mali playing in white, get the ball rolling here at the Moulet Rashid Stadium here in Casablanca.
00:09Ghana collecting in the midfield with Ascentuwa claiming the possession.
00:17Who will control the midfield tonight?
00:19Here on the left-hand side, there's the delivery coming in.
00:21It's not bad at all, dealt with at the back, but only as far as the Ghanaian midfielder.
00:27Rifled shot there, beautifully struck from Ascentuwa, and dealt with perfectly by Carantau as well.
00:35A good option, I like what she did, first of all, the control was brilliant.
00:39And then a little bit too close to the goalkeeper, but she does pack a really good shot.
00:44The FC Juarez player based in Mexico with that wonderful league.
00:49That will make us think that there might be Ascentuwa Liberge.
00:57Oh, Vendela Roche could be the player coming on, unless she's okay to go.
01:07Oh, that was the clash coming in with Chantal Boyd-Loha.
01:13Nice touch, goes inside, pulls it back, nicely done, I like what they're doing here.
01:19Finally Yeboah, and there's the cross coming in.
01:21There's the delivery, it's a header that's gone tamely into the hands of Carantau.
01:26Looks like she's taped to take my papers and my notes to the desk, just in front of me.
01:34Otherwise they do turn in.
01:41Here it is coming in, there's the delivery right into the penalty box.
01:44Anybody needs to get a shot in, there's a scramble.
01:47It has been pulled back, a chance for a header.
01:50Only Garnayan players there, and there is an infringement.
01:54It will be a free kick finally for Garner.
01:57Garner on that left-hand side, Garner on the attack.
02:00Trying to get the ball back across, it doesn't manage to find a teammate.
02:05Player struck in the face, and the referee reacting immediately.
02:12It can take the wind out of your sails if it's hit with a little bit of force.
02:21...of that elusive goal at the end of the first half.
02:23It's a great delivery!
02:25Libert is coming to the rescue.
02:27And that's a very strong statement.
02:34Clearance, she came through.
02:36Stardiana, there's the delivery coming in.
02:39From post, great header, great goal!
02:41Garner take the lead!
02:43Perfectly set up, and look at that for a header!
02:48An absolute class act from Evelyn Badu.
02:52But beautifully set up.
02:58Chantelle Boye, Clorca.
03:04Very important in the build-up play.
03:07That delivery that came across was top-notch.
03:12First of all, it goes down to the Nottingham Forest player.
03:15She pulls it back.
03:17First-time delivery.
03:19Brilliant header.
03:21And how about that?
03:22That is top quality.
03:28And there's your header going in.
03:34The angled header beating Libert.
03:44And Evelyn Badu scoring her first goal here at Wafcon.
03:50And Garner.
03:51Oh, it's a mistake there from Kudon.
03:53And the ball's been picked up here.
03:55There's Yeboah.
03:56Oh, she should have left it.
03:58But the shot comes in directly towards the goalkeeper from Doris Boisdwa.
04:02And she should have dummied that.
04:06Good chance here for Mali on the attack.
04:09And smashed away.
04:14Has been kept in.
04:15And that's going to be the half-time whistle here.
04:19From Ule Rashid Stadium in Casablanca.
04:22A very highly-energised 45 minutes of football.
04:32As we get the second half going here.
04:38Long ball going high.
04:40There's two players waiting for the communication.
04:43There's the volley.
04:44The volley was just blocked.
04:46It's a handball there, and it was, well, Diara went for the volley.
04:56She struck it really well.
04:58Batu getting in the way.
05:00Diabate with the right foot.
05:02It's shot.
05:02It's a great goal!
05:04Mali have scored an equaliser.
05:06And she's only just come onto the pitch.
05:10A brilliant free kick.
05:13And a goal has been scored there.
05:20Caridiato Diabate.
05:23And the Mande team player has scored a brilliant goal.
05:29It's her first game and her first minutes here.
05:35And Diabate playing in this Wafcon.
05:37What a fabulous moment.
05:38Right-footed.
05:39Takes a wicked deflection.
05:45There's nothing you can do about that.
05:47Look at her.
05:49She tries to fly over to the right side.
05:52But just look at that deflection of Boyd and Lorca.
05:55And she's already going to the left, but she nearly manages to get it.
06:00It's Cynthia Conlan and Diabate.
06:03Lots of movement.
06:03The ball comes in.
06:05It's headed away there by Isata Traore.
06:08And the Boston Legacy player, who was part of the team in 2018,
06:14that managed to beat Garner and Ascord.
06:19Again, that's two goals for her.
06:21Free kick here for Mali.
06:23High ball into the penalty box taken very well there by Cynthia Conlan.
06:41And another player down in the panels.
06:46Alice Kusi from Kumasi, the Shanti region of Ghana, with the delivery coming in.
06:54Oh, that's so close, the header.
06:58And Doris Bardois, so good in the air.
07:02Look at her.
07:03That was half a yard wide of the target.
07:07On target.
07:08And I'm sure that that would have bounced past Libez and gone into the back of the net.
07:15Coming in from the right-hand side.
07:16There's the delivery.
07:17Far post.
07:18Header at the back post.
07:19It's surely in the back of the net.
07:20They can't get it in.
07:22There's the shot maybe.
07:23Block from Libez into her hands.
07:25What a scramble.
07:27Incredible scenes there in the six-yard box.
07:31First of all, the delivery came over.
07:33Boy Hilorka.
07:34And just look at that.
07:35She couldn't quite untangle herself.
07:38He's got a yellow card, so it doesn't affect her.
07:40There's the ball coming over.
07:41Nice delivery there.
07:42And it's the defense who comes to the rescue.
07:46At the back.
07:47Ali Adyane just getting ahead of Doris Bardois.
07:50Tent scenario here with the 1-1.
07:53That's a great ball.
07:54Picks up here by Doris Bardois.
07:56Gets the ball across.
07:57Great goal.
07:58Look at that.
08:00And a fabulous finish.
08:03And Evelyn Badu getting a second.
08:07Outstanding.
08:10Going to take a two-goal lead.
08:15It just looks so simple.
08:29There's your answer.
08:35I think from the replay, we got to see that.
08:40First-hand plays for Bran in Norway.
08:50Saratou gets the shot.
08:52It's a massive deflection.
08:54It's going to be a corner.
08:55Gets Diabate.
08:59Diabate with the right foot.
09:01It's shot.
09:01It's a great goal.
09:03Marley have scored an equalizer.
09:06And she's only just come onto the pitch.
09:10A brilliant free kick.
09:13And a goal has been scored there.
09:22And the Mande team player has scored a brilliant goal.
09:28It's her first game.
09:30And her first minutes here.
09:34Playing in this WAFCON.
09:36What a fabulous moment.
09:38Right footed.
09:39Takes a wicked deflection.
09:44There's nothing you can do about that.
09:46Look at her.
09:48She tries to fly over to the right side.
09:51But just look at that deflection of Boyt Lorca.
09:55And she's already going to the left.
09:57But she nearly manages to get it.
09:59Cynthia Conlan and Diabate valiantly.
10:04After going behind.
10:06Ghana pick up possession here.
10:09There's the shard.
10:10It's a great stop again by Lieberge.
10:16And there it is.
10:17The final whistle.
10:18Ghana have qualified for the quarterfinals once again.
10:24They've done enough to deny Malia place in the last eight.
10:32What a battle it was.
10:36And Evelyn Badu.
