Banyana Banyana have improved in leaps and bounds since they took part in the FIFA World in France four years ago, where they bowed out in the group stages. “We have grown so much over the years, and I think you saw the growth when we won the Afcon in Morocco. Winning Afcon wasn’t easy. We knew what we wanted but going to the World Cup, we will need to do more. I think we are ready to go,” she adds.She will be hoping to be part of the team this time around.“I think that will add more pressure. However, it gives us a boost because we are going there with experience in the tournament. It will be great.
