Headline POOR TEAM MANAGEMENT COULD  RESULT IN BANYANA BANYANA LOSING A BIG MATCH

 Banyana Banyana left without the key goalkeeper as Yolula Tsawe Injured her hand a training on Thursday and will be replaced by Mapaseka Mpuru.

The goalkeeper,Yolula Tsawe is said to have suffered this unfortunate injury ahead of the team's departure to their crucial decider match in Equatorial Guinea and thus been replaced by an U20 goalkeeper, Mpuru.

As this is a qualifying match, fans are questioning Mpuru’s capabilities, wondering if she is fit enough to handle the pressure in such a big match? Some call for a substitute that is within the team not a U20 player irrespective of her winning game in the 2016 Papua New Guinea Women’s World Cup.

To assure the fans, Banyana Banyana said, “The U20 international player has already arrived in camp and will be training with Banyana Banyana on Thursday ,15 October in their afternoon training.” however, people still want to know as to the management could allow someone to train only a day and just play at a crucial decider match. 

The whole ordeal shows poor management as Banyana Banyana  is supposed to always have a substitute training with them, now they are bringing someone young, somewhat inexperienced, an u20 to play in an international match that is the decider for the olympic games in Rio De Janeiro,Brazil next year.

Meanwhile one of the team’s strikers, Jermaine Seoposengwe who is based in the USA has also arrived in camp and will be training with her teammates on Thursday in the afternoon.
