A blockbuster week of sporting action awaits DStv and GOtv subscribers, with the decisive stages of the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON), UEFA Super Cup, FA Community Shield and Trophée des Champions among the major attractions, SuperSport, a satellite television broadcast outfit, has said.

According to Supersport, the festival begins with football taking centre stage as WAFCON reaches its business end in Morocco, with the semi-finals scheduled for yesterday.

Defending champions Nigeria were not involved after the Super Falcons were eliminated by Cameroon in the quarterfinals, losing 1-0. Their exit means a new champion will be crowned when the tournament concludes on Sunday.

The first semifinal saw Algeria facing Malawi yesterday before hosts Morocco took on Cameroon later in the day. Both matches were broadcast live on SuperSport. The third-place play-off is scheduled for Saturday, with the final holding in Rabat on Sunday.

Apart from action in the continent, SuperSport broadcast the Paris Saint-Germain versus Aston Villa European Super Cup at Stadion Salzburg in Austria. The fixture featured Champions League winners PSG against Europa League winners Aston Villa.

“The action continues on Sunday with the FA Community Shield, as Arsenal take on Manchester. The traditional curtain-raiser for the English season will be broadcast live on SuperSport.

“French football will also have early-season silverware at stake when Lens host PSG in the Trophee des Champions on Sunday at Stade Bollaert-Delelis. The match kicks off at 20:00 WAT and will be live on SuperSport.

“The new La Liga season gets underway on Saturday, with Barcelona, Real Madrid, Atletico Madrid and the other leading Spanish clubs beginning their campaigns,” it added.

Beyond football, the outfit promised cricket fans plenty to enjoy as The Hundred reaches its climax on Sunday, with the women’s final followed by the men’s final. Both matches will be available on SuperSport Cricket.

“Combat sports will also take the spotlight with UFC 330 from Philadelphia on Saturday, adding another major attraction to SuperSport’s weekend line-up.”
