A celebration of two incredible musicians and a look at the state of play in women’s football in Africa. We meet up with rising Liberian star Angie TonTon at Senegalese legend Thion Seck’s studio in Dakar to discuss why it’s hard to be heard internationally as a female musician and the personal help she’s received from president George Weah. She even sings a cappella for us. We discuss the secret to the string of incredible artists to emerge from Mali with Fatoumata Diawara - born in the Ivory Coast to Malian parents - and the advice she gives to other female artists. And we look back at Nigeria’s recent triumph at the Africa Women's Cup of Nations and look at the dearth of female coaches at the top of the women’s game with Goal.com journalist Samuel Ahmadu.
