The Witness reports that according to the SA Football Association (Safa), Banyana Banyana resumed their preparations for the defence of their continental football title after the impasse over money owed to the players was resolved on Saturday.
Coach Desiree Ellis and her charges returned to the pitch on Saturday afternoon and played a training match against Benin ahead of the start of the Caf Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (Wafcon), which is scheduled to be staged in Morocco from 5 to 26 July 2025. Safa vice-president Linda Zwane and CEO Lydia Monyepao momentarily excused themselves from the Safa congress in Sandton and contacted the Banyana Banyana camp in Morocco earlier in the day. They spoke to the team’s HOD, Thabile Msomi, and captain, Refiloe Jane, in a bid to sort out the matter. Zwane said the two parties found each other and an agreement was reached, paving the way for the Sasol-sponsored South African senior women’s national team to play the training match. Monyepao explained that the matter centred on the friendly matches played in the last few months – the match against Malawi and the ThreeNations series games against Zambia and Botswana – and not on the Wafcon.
