Banyana drew 1-1 with DR Congo in the away leg on Wednesday last week, and will need to be clinical in the home leg on Monday if they are to seal the qualifier. Jermaine Seoposenwe and Samkelisiwe Selana, who missed the away leg, will be available for selection on Monday. “I thought our final training session ahead of the game tomorrow went really well with everybody available for training and getting the feel of the field. It’s a familiar ground that we played in before,” said Banyana coach Desiree Ellis.“It’s a game that we must win, a game that we must start well and take away from the opponent because they have shown that they are a very resilient team.”
Coach Desiree Ellis’ charges have qualified for the global showpiece on two occasions – in 2012 under coach Joseph Mkhonza and in 2016 under coach Vera Pauw.Banyana missed out in 2019 after losing to Botswana and Ellis will be hoping to draw inspiration from her team’s Women’s African Cup of Nations triumph in Morocco last year, and the performances in the recent FIFA Women’s World Cup.
