Sports World News of Thursday, 4 August 2016Source: BBCEquatorial Guinea banned from next three Africa Women Cup of NationsEquatorial Guinea have been banned from the next three editions of the Africa Women Cup of Nations for fielding a player using fraudulent documents. Mali will replace Equatorial Guinea in the final tournament of the 2016 Africa Women Cup of Nations, which will take place in Cameroon from 19 November to 3 December. CAF said on its website that it acted after a protest by Mali, who lost 3-2 to Equatorial Guinea in the final round of the Africa Women Cup of Nations qualifiers. The Confederation of African Football has now penalised Equatorial Guinea over the same issue. And African football's governing body concluded that "the participation of player Camila Nobre do Carmo Oliviera with Equatorial Guinea in the two matches against Mali is considered illegal".
