Day 3 of the IWBF Africa Tournament delivered another spectacle of world-class wheelchair basketball, with teams showcasing incredible skill, determination, and passion on the court. In a gripping showdown, South Africa once again proved they are the team to beat, edging out Libya in a nail-biting contest filled with high intensity plays and relentless teamwork beating the Northern African squad 47-34.
Speaking about the thrilling matchup, Sasol Manager Group Brand and Sponsorships, Dean Somerset, said:
“The level of skill displayed by both teams was exceptional, but South Africa continues to show that they truly ‘Live the Impossible.’ Their performance tonight reinforced why they are a force to be reckoned with in this tournament.”
With each game, South Africa is strengthening its claim as the dominant team of the tournament, rolling forward with unwavering confidence and an unbreakable winning spirit. The U23 team will face a tough day on Day 4 of the tournament as they will be up against the DR Congo at 9:00 in the morning and will again face Liberia in the afternoon and 15:30 to fight their way into being crowned the IWBF Africa Region U23 Men’s champions.
