Breaking Barriers - DR Congo's Nod to First Woman Soccer Coach
One of Africa's biggest football clubs Tout Puissant Mazembe, has appointed Maguy Safi as its first woman coach to lead the woman's soccer team. This is a huge step forward, where in the past, soccer was considered a man's sport. "The sport we practice is a profession like all other professions such as medicine and I chose sport," said Safi, adding that she is proud to be a sportswoman.
