The Liberia Senior Women’s National Team claimed third place at the 2025 WAFU-A Women’s Cup after a hard-fought 1-0 victory over Mali on Friday, May 31, 2025, at the Stade Cheikha Boidiya Nouakchott, in Mauritania.
The match was intense, with both teams displaying strong ball control and creating multiple scoring opportunities. However, the first half ended goalless due to poor finishing on both sides.
As the second half resumed, both sides remained cautious, carefully studying each other’s tactics. But just minutes into the second half, Real Muja striker, Delphine G. Glao, broke through, scoring the decisive goal for Liberia’s Senior Women’s National Team.
Mali pushed hard in search of an equalizer, but Liberia held firm. At the final whistle, it was Liberia, who emerged victorious, clinching a well-deserved 1-0 win.
Delphine G. Glao was a standout performer.
Stylish and ruthless in one-on-one situations, she’s pure magic on the ball and a nightmare for defenders.
Glao explosive pace, silky footwork, and fearless attitude allow her to slice through defensive lines like a hot knife through butter.
With grace and confidence, Glao’s tight control in crowded areas and deceptive movement make her one of the hardest players to stop.
Her stellar performance against Mali earned her the Woman of the Match award.
She wrapped up the LFA Upper Women’s League season with an impressive 13 goals, further cementing her reputation as one of Liberia’s brightest football talents.
