The Confederation of African Football (CAF) has appointed Cameroon’s Therese Neguel as the centre referee for Saturday’s 2016 FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup African final qualifying round match in Abuja.
The News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) reports that the first leg match is between the Falconets of Nigeria and South Africa’s Basetsana.
Neguel, 34 and a FIFA referee since 2007, will be assisted by compatriots Josiane Nfongan, Carine Fomo and Therese Abou’ou.
They will perform respectively in the roles of Assistant Referee 1, Assistant Referee 2 and Reserve Referee.
Also, Zalikatou Traore from Guinea will serve as the game’s Match Commissioner.
The winners between reigning world vice-champions Falconets and the Basetsana on aggregate will qualify for the 8th FIFA U-20 Women’s World Cup in Papua New Guinea in 2016.
To reach this final round, the Falconets defeated Democratic Republic of Congo home and away for a 4-1 aggregate victory.
Also, the Basetsana pipped Zambia’s junior girls 3-2 on aggregate.
NAN reports that the Basetsana delegation is expected to arrive in Abuja on Thursday.
