Meet South Africa married couple who played in same WAFCON match

By GhanaSummary NewsroomNigeria

While South Africa opened their campaign with a disappointing loss to Tanzania, the Moodaly-Salgados etched their names into WAFCON history by becoming the first married couple to play together in the same match at Africa’s premier women’s football tournament.

South African football made history on Monday after Banyana Banyana stars Robyn Moodaly-Salgado and Gabriela Moodaly-Salgado became the first married couple to feature in the same Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) match.

Their appearance together marked a significant first, not only for the reigning African champions but also for the tournament itself, as no married couple had previously shared the pitch in a WAFCON match.
