Four years after players from the Afghanistan women's national team fled their homeland amid the Taliban's takeover, a number of the teammates are representing their country again in a soccer tournament. Only this time as refugees.
The tournament represents a first major step in the fight to be officially recognized as a national team on the global stage. Collectively they call themselves Afghan Women United.
