Since Sunday, 26 July, the continent’s attention has turned to Morocco, where the 2026 Women’s Africa Cup of Nations is officially underway. The tournament has already produced its fair share of excitement, and last night it was South Africa’s turn to get its campaign underway. Banyana Banyana, the defending champions, suffered a disappointing 2-1 defeat to Tanzania in their Group B opener; a result that few would have predicted, but one that certainly doesn’t put an end to their title defence. So, what exactly went wrong for Banyana last night? Were there tactical errors, lapses in execution, or simply a case of Tanzania taking their chances better? And perhaps more importantly, what needs to change before South Africa’s next outing? Football analyst Sizwe Mbebe joins us now to unpack the performance and assess whether Banyana Banyana can still mount a strong campaign.
