Mares in COSAFA regression

It remains the team's best finish at the competition and now for the third time in a row, the Mares have failed to progress from the group stages of the COSAFA Championship.

On Wednesday, the Mares played to a 1-1 draw against Zimbabwe in a Group C decider in a tournament held in Gauteng, South Africa. It was a must-win match for the local girls having started the championship with a 1-1 draw against Namibia before a 3-0 win over Lesotho.
