For the past two weeks,SA has been in a state of euphoria after the incredible feat achieved by the women’s national soccer team, Banyana Banyana. Even more special to see were the Eastern Cape-born players who formed part of the history-making team. Robyn Moodley (East London), Kholosa Biyani (Ngcobo), Bambanani Mbane (Sterkspruit), Kaylin Swart (Gqeberha), Melinda Kgadiete (Mdantsane) and Sibulele Holweni (Gqeberha) have revived the dreams of many young girls, especially in the Eastern C.
Banyana Banyana have booked a place in the quarterfinal stage of the 2022 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (Wafcon) in Morocco with a 3-1 win over Burundi at the Stade Prince Moulay El Hassan on Thursday.
