Jermaine Seoposenwe, who returned to the national team set-up for the first time since 2019, and Hildah Magaia scored for SA in the second half before Rasheedat Ajibade pulled one back for the Super Falcons deep in added time. Banyana will now shift their focus to Burundi on Thursday and play Botswana in their final game of the group stage on Sunday.

“Nothing changes. We have to do the same thing over and over again. We have to stay true to who we are, putting the ball on the ground and moving the ball around,” the coach said.
