The finals of the tournament will be held in South Africa in September. Botswana coach, Gaoletlhoo Nkutlwisang told Mmegi Sport that her team's preparations have gone well and she is confident of victory.  She said the players are looking forward to the Sunday game though they do not know anything about their opponents. She believes that if they had had a chance to watch DRC, they would have prepared better.
