Afghan women's team reunites abroad
The Afghan women's football team, composed of players living abroad, gathered in New Zealand for training and friendly matches for the first time since FIFA approved their ability to represent Afghanistan in official competitions. This marks a significant step toward their goal of qualifying for international events like the World Cup and Olympics, despite the country's restrictions under the Taliban, who banned women’s sports. The players, many evacuees from Afghanistan, see football as a symbol of resilience and hope for women's rights and opportunities back home.
