Banyana Banyana forward Jermaine Seoposenwe has made it clear that winning the Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (Wafcon) Golden Boot isn’t her main goal despite the odds favouring her to do so.
Seoposenwe boasts two goals and is Banyana’s top scorer in the tournament. Wafcon’s joint-leading scorers are Ghizlane Chebbak of the hosts Morocco and Nigeria’s Rasheedat Ajibade on three goals.
Seoposenwe will spearhead Mzansi’s attack when they trade blows with neighbours Zambia in their semifinal at Stade V Mohammed in Casablanca on Monday night . Nigeria meet Morocco in the later game at Stade Prince Moulay Abdallah in Rabat . “I think as a forward I am positive about leading the attack and scoring goals but the objective is to make it to the final,'' said Seoposenwe at a press conference in Casablanca on Sunday, where coach Desiree Ellis also shared her plans for the Zambia tie.
“I am not going to try to chase individual awards because we came here as a team. If it [winning the Golden Boot] happens, it happens but it’s not my priority.”
