The National Federation of Rwanda’s Women’s Football team has suspended the team’s head coach, Grace Nyinawumuntu for referring to Ghana’s Black Queens players as “men” following her team’s humiliating 7-0 loss in the African Women’s Cup Of Nations qualifiers in Kigali.
According to a statement released by the Rwandan Football Association,the coach has been suspended indefinitely due to the improper language she used following the match between Rwanda and Ghana.
“The remarks made by the coach of the national women about the players of the Ghana national women’s team are in violation of the rules and values of football in Rwanda.”
“We remind members of Ferwafa to desist from behaviour and remarks that are not aligned with the truth, have no factual basis and are not professional.”the release reads.
According to Grace Nyinawumuntu, the Ghanaian squad scared her team, which led to a 7-0 rout in a Wednesday.
“They have girls who we think have male hormones. They are girls who are like men,” she said.
“Our team was scared… when they got to the pitch, they conceded because they were scared.”she stated.
