Botswana Under 20 Suffers A 2-0 Defeat To Swaziland.
For the first since 1992 in the Cosafa U20 competitions, Swaziland has defeated Botswana.Β Swaziland’s constant pressure paying off in the 34th minute through a Mthembu’s strike.Β Botswana survived as the ref disallows a second for Swaziland for offside, it could have been 3.
The COSAFA Under-20 Championship, sponsored by PPC, started todayΒ at Moruleng Stadium in South Africaβs North West Province where the cream of Southern Africa football talent has gathered. Our game paved the way for a meeting between the hosts South Africa and Lesotho at the same venue.
The nation had anticipated that we will go all the way up the group stages, but it seems we might face problems if the boys don’t pull up their socks. The poor defense from our young lads cost us a great deal, and if Swaziland was much stronger,they could have scored more goals. Lets hope we are there not to participate but to win the championship.
