I am happy they at least scored those two goals. This shows they have the ability to compete.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Super-sub Charity Midewa was able to pull two back for Starlets but the girls were unable to match the 6-2 aggregate.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSome players don\u2019t give much during training but they do something on the pitch. I am happy she got a brace and got the chance to play. She is a top player,\u201d she added.<\/p>\n<p>The Odemba-led side missed the services of Phasila Adhiambo who skipped the game due to accumulating two yellows.<\/p>\n<p>\u201c Cameroon overrun us in midfield. It was difficult. Phasila got two yellows and she couldn\u2019t play in the match. To be honest, we felt her absence in the midfield. Cameroon were playing highballs and attacking football. Let us just say the opponent was tactically better.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Coach Odemba was still missing eight key players who were still sitting for their Kenya Certificate of Secondary Education (KCSE) examinations.<\/p>\n<p>Odemba said she could not attribute the loss to the absence of the key players. \u201cWe had time to prepare with the girls so I can\u2019t say that\u2019s the reason we lost. I was missing the services of Valerie Nekesa and Captain Jane Hato but that was not much of a big deal,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n<p>Cameroon will now head to the fourth round and will face the winner between Congo and Egypt in the final round later this year. The finals are scheduled from August 31 to September 22 next year.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/mozambique\">Mozambique<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Mozambique.
