00:00But now, it's been taken over by those excited to see the finale.
00:21So it's underway, the fourth edition of the CAF Women's Champions League.
00:25As far the hosts of 2022 champions taking on the pretenders to the crown, Tepe Mazembe.
00:34And what a start for the DR Congolese side.
00:39An early corner and of course it was from a set piece.
00:43But it's certainly a sign of the huge task ahead for the Ravens since their semi-final defeat.
00:52Chance to dig out across here.
00:56Protects the ball well, strikes the edge of the area.
01:00It comes in and it's eventually just a little bit awkward.
01:05So the decision is coming and we're going to get a better idea of what they're looking at.
01:12Because the referee has been called across to the screen.
01:17It may have thought initially as the referee did in open play, Nwaila Benzina had blocked it.
01:25But in fact, Aziza Rabaa with both hands out.
01:31And I think this is going to be a Tepe Mazembe penalty.
01:35But they're going to have another chance in the final.
01:38Well, Thelma Bafour was the one Nermishi denied on match day two of group A.
01:53She's not on the pitch, so someone else is going to step up as Rabaa.
02:03And she scores with a quite sumptuous hit.
02:07Tepe Mazembe celebrates, Nermishi beaten.
02:12And she knew she had to be clinical, given the goalkeeper she was facing, Boumedi.
02:19Flying high in the CAF Women's Champions League final.
02:26Brilliant strike.
02:29And the 28-year-old.
02:31Brilliant strike.
02:33And the 28-year-old, who scored from the spot in the semi-final, has now scored in successive.
02:45Looking to break again, it's a lovely ball in behind.
02:48Couple of options, takes a touch, squares it!
02:53A gilt-edge chance missed.
02:57Merve Kanjinga.
03:00Had a host of big chances missed.
03:03Will this be one they look back on with huge regret?
03:07She just had to hit the target.
03:11Nermishi would have been stranded, but she's the wrong side of the post.
03:16The Ravens number 10.
03:19Emotion brings out the best in them.
03:23And they've got a free kick in a really promising position.
03:27And it will finally be a booking.
03:30Well, she was warned a couple of times in Brigitte.
03:38Of course, Doha Madani scored a stunner in the semi-final.
03:42This time, a set-piece.
03:47But she'd rather, I'm sure, swap that for the crown.
03:50But maybe she can have both.
03:53Here she is now, trying to bring out the tricks.
03:55Lovely skill, drives it across!
03:57Panuk lets it go!
04:00For the top scorer in the competition, Madani.
04:02That's exactly what happens.
04:03Swung into a really good area, but three Asphar players going for the same ball.
04:09And that certainly helps.
04:10And now Kreto can complete the clearance.
04:13Do enough to hold out.
04:15And they lead at the half-time of this.
04:19The fourth CAF Women's Champions League final.
04:22Asphar are the favourites.
04:24Conceding a penalty after VAR saw a handball from Captain Rabat.
04:31In her place, Elena Nekwandum.
04:36But at the moment, no change to the scoreline.
04:38Kassaj and her tenth-minute penalty separating these sides.
04:42With the CAF Women's Champions League trophy on the line.
04:53Asphar looking for that quick start.
04:55Massoudi.
04:57Bit of a loose ball though.
04:59Leaves the Raven down.
05:02The referee happy to let play Rayjean Madani.
05:05Nineteen-year-old, goes for goal.
05:07Hits the target, but it's an easy take from Ngoi.
05:12Chance to deliver a ball in.
05:14It's a really good one.
05:17The substitute trying to bundle her way through.
05:21And a scooped effort off target.
05:23The summer of 2025.
05:26Chance for players here to continue to impress.
05:29As that's lofted into a good area.
05:31The header on target, but not enough power.
05:36Can be distracting.
05:38But nothing stopping the players.
05:42No wonder frustration from Erudani.
05:48For Asphar.
05:51Eremici.
05:53Benzina.
05:55Massoudi and Madani.
05:57But at the moment, those talents are being outshone by the Ravens.
