Sibanda excited with Banyana clash

Mighty Warriors coach Sithethelelwe Sibanda is expecting an exciting clash against South Africa in the COSAFA Women Championship final tomorrow at Barbourfields.

Zimbabwe qualified to the finals after beating Kenya 4-0 while Banyana Banyana come from behind to push the game to the penalties where they beat Zambia 5-3. The final will be a repeat of the 2011 and 2002 editions with South Africa winning in 2002 while Zimbabwe lifted the trophy in 2011.

Sibanda believes that the game will go either side as both teams have won the final before.

“It is going to be blockbuster of a final. The results have gone either way in the past. We have won and they have also won. At the end of the day, you cannot predict what is going to happen, but I am expecting and interesting game,” Sibanda said.

However the gaffer is aware of how things can change in the field and she will have a different approach the game.

“We just need to have a good tactical approach in that game. This is another game played on a different day so we will have a different approach and hopefully our tactics on the day work,” she said.
