Right to Dream - Africa's only girls' football and education programme

Ahead of the Women's Africa Cup of Nations in Ghana, footballers Joy & Marion take Sarah Mulkerrins on a tour of the Right to Dream academy - which offers Africa's first and only girls' football and education programme.

Both speak about their hopes for gender equality in the sport and how they can't wait to watch women's football matches inside stadiums during the tournament.

We also hear from the academy's Head of Football, Gareth Henderby, who says the talent among girls in Africa is huge but their opportunities are very limited.
