COSAFA Women’s Cup: Banyana cruise to second win

Teenager Noxolo Cesane scored her first goal for South Africa as they came from a goal down to beat Malawi 3-1 in their Group A clash in the COSAFA Women’s Championship at a packed Wolfson Stadium on Friday.

The victory makes it two wins from two for Banyana Banyana as they go in hunt of a third successive regional title, but they were certainly made to sweat by an excellent Malawi side.

Asimenye Simwaka gave the She-Flames an early lead inside four minutes, but the home side were level 10 minutes before the break when Lebogang Ramalepe’s cross floated into the back of the net.

Banyana took control of the game after that and took the lead on 68 minutes when substitute Cesane netted her first international goal.

The points were made safe on 85 minutes when Amanda Mthandi finished an excellent team move from a Refiloe Jane pass to net her fourth goal of the campaign.
