Nigeria’s female basketball team D’Tigress are
champions of Africa for the third time after defeating
Senegal in the final of the Afrobasket championship.
D’Tigress who were unbeaten throughout the
tournament defeated Senegal 65 to 48 at the Palais
des Sports Salamatou Maiga, Mali on Sunday.
The game was a repeat of the 2005 final when Nigeria
defeated the Lionesses 64-57 for their second African
title.
D’Tigress had also defeated Senegal in their last group
stage game.
Owing to their incredible form and winning streak,
D’Tigress are now among the teams to watch out for
