Familiar Foe Awaits Under-20 Side

The local girls beat Namibia 2-0 in the second leg of the preliminary round of qualifiers played at the National Stadium on Friday night.The team advanced on a 9-0 aggregate score and set a date with Basetsana later this month. In the first 10 minutes, Namibia sat behind the centre line, as they feared another embarrassing scoreline while Botswana seemed to enjoy possession without hurrying into the final third.

On the 13th minute, Esalenna Galekhutle beat her markers and delivered a cross for Obonetse Rathari who tapped in to give the locals the lead. It was 2-0 on the 21st minute as Keitumetse Dithebe curled in a free kick to the top corner.
