Diana Msewa Named TotalEnergies Woman of the Match in Tanzania’s Stalemate with South Africa

In a tightly contested Group C fixture at the 2024 WAFCON in Oujda, Diana Msewa of Tanzania was awarded the TotalEnergies Woman of the Match following the team’s spirited 1–1 draw with defending champions South Africa.

Msewa was instrumental in orchestrating Tanzania’s midfield play and played a pivotal role in helping her side secure a vital point against top-tier opposition. Her composed performance, vision, and consistent involvement earned her the distinction in a game where both teams delivered strong performances .

The match saw Opa Clement break the deadlock for Tanzania in the 24th minute before Bambanani Mbane leveled for South Africa in the 70th—each goal reflecting the competitive nature of the encounter.

Msewa’s recognition highlights not only her individual quality but also the growing confidence and competitiveness of the Tanzanian side at the continental level. The 23‑year‑old, who currently plays in the Turkish Super League for Trabzonspor, continues to boost her reputation as a dynamic midfield force.

With one match remaining in Group C, Tanzania will look to build on this performance and consolidate their campaign strength heading into the final group game.
