Banyana Banyana coach Desiree Ellis will be looking for an improvement from her team in key departments, but said she was satisfied to start with a 2-1 win against Malawi at the 2021 Cosafa Women’s Championship on Tuesday.

Goals from Melinda Kgadiete in the third minute and Noxolo Cesane in the 37th appeared enough to secure a comfortable Group A victory to defending champions SA at Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium in Gqeberha.

“But we played right into their hands at times by not releasing the ball quicker, by not moving the ball around quicker.“In the second half we knew they wouldn’t stop running. We gave the same instructions as at the Aisha Buhari Cup — that the first 10, 15 minutes was going to be crucial and we almost scored a few times.

“But we didn’t hold onto the ball as we should have in the last 10 minutes. I think we finished the game very poorly. “When the ball came back we didn’t press. You could see it happening but there was nothing I could do about it because the players were slow getting there.
