Rwanda have secured a place in the semi-finals of the CAVB Women’s African Nations Volleyball Championship after defeating Ghana 3-1 in a hard-fought quarter-final at the Kasarani Indoor Arena.
Rwanda took control early, winning the opening set 25-17, but Ghana fought back strongly to claim the second set 26-24 and level the contest.
The Rwandans regained their composure in the third set, winning 25-19, before sealing victory with a 25-18 win in the fourth set.
The victory sends Rwanda into the semi-finals, where they will face three-time African champions Egypt.

Despite the quarter-final defeat, Ghana produced moments of strong resistance, particularly in the second set, but Rwanda’s consistency in the crucial stages ultimately proved decisive.
