South Africa 2-1 Tanzania: Banyana Banyana Stumble in WAFCON

Banyana Banyana, led by coach Desiree Ellis, fell 2-1 to Tanzania during the group phase of the Women's Africa Cup of Nations. Tanzania struck first with a swift counter‑attack before Banyana equalised early in the second half, only to concede the winner later on.

The defeat puts South Africa's World Cup qualifying campaign in jeopardy and has sparked criticism of Ellis' tactical choices and defensive organization.
