Nigeria made it to their maiden semifinal in their sixth attempt. The African champions had earlier lost thrice in the quarterfinals -- in 2010, 2012 and 2014.
The duo will link up with Kenyan international midfielder Corazon Aquino who has made a flying start in Dar es Salaam, guiding the club to victory in the CECAFA Women’s Champions League, a result that saw Simba qualify as the CECAFA representative to the CAF Women’s Champions League slated for later on in the year.
Aquino scored in the 14th and 47th minutes with Clementine Opa, Aisha Juma and Diana William all getting on the scoresheet as Dorothee Mukeshimana scored Kigali’s consolation.
In their first chance of the game, the Greek champions came incredibly close to opening to scoring. Maria Mitkou played a ball to send Akida through on goal, she looped it over Victoria Esson but her effort bounced off the crossbar to deny PAOK a breakthrough.
Akida signed an initial one and a half year deal with PAOK in June last year. She extended that deal in July this year to see her through the 2022/23 season.
Aquino becomes the second Kenyan to feature for Simba, following in the footsteps of Bertha Omita who played during the 2020 season.
Topister Situma’s 24th and 38th minute brace alongside Immaculate Wangila’s 85th minute strike were enough to steer Boniface Nyamunyamu’s side to their fourth title, with four matches of the regular season still to play.
The legacy makers are now just in need of three points to be officially crowned champions.
