13 Apr: Women's AFCON qualifiers & former Super Eagle Femi Opabunmi

from Planet Sport Football Africa · host Passion for Sport

On this week's show we talk more about women's football, as Zambia, The Gambia and Zimbabwe were among the winners in the first round qualifiers for the 2108 AWCON. Also we speak to Femi Opabunmi, the youngest player ever to represent Nigeria at the World Cup. But he later lost much of his eyesight, and has had financial struggles and he even contemplated suicide. We hear Opabunmi's touching story. And we review a dramatic week in European football, as Barcelona exit the Champions League and Manchester City lose three games in a row.
