12 July 2025 – African champions Banyana Banyana were held to a 1-1 draw by a 10-player Tanzania in a Women’s Africa Cup of Nations (WAFCON) Group C match played at the Honneur Stadium in Oujda, Morocco, on Friday night.

Coach Dr Desiree Ellis’ charges had to come back from a goal down and force a draw after Tanzania went into the lead following the opening goal from Clement Tukumbuke in the 24th minute. After struggling to find their rhythm in the early exchanges, the South African senior women’s national team eventually clawed their way back and it came as no surprise when Bambanani Mbane found the equalizer following a corner kick in the 70th minute.

The Tanzanians finished the match with 10 players after Winfrida Hubert Gerald was shown a red card with the assistance of the Video Assistant Referee (VAR) check following her tackle on Linda Motlhalo with 10 minutes remaining.

  1. So I\’m real good friends with this guy named Juan Ted. Now, Juan is a pretty improbable guy. He can steal ANYTHING he wants to. Literally anything. It could be the shirt off your back, the wallet in your pocket, or I\’m even sure he\’d find a way to steal your house (And your spouse too). So anyway, one day Juan and I are sitting around watching TV, and they announced that the hope diamond will not be on display anymore and is now getting moved to an undisclosed location. So as we hear this, Juan says \”I\’m gonna steal it\”. Now I know how good Juan is at this kind of stuff, so I just tell him good luck and he goes on his way. Eventually he narrows his search down to a small cave in South Africa. When Juan gets there, he doesn\’t see any guards or anything outside the cave, so he just walks in assuming he was wrong about where the diamond was. He wanders around for a while until he sees a long lit hallway with the hope diamond at the end of it. Confident in his abilities, he strolls over to the diamond and picks it up before realizing its a trap! Suddenly, red lights flashed, armed men came running out, sirens went off. You could hear one of the men say under his breath \”We finally caught Juan Ted.\” But Juan, being the best thief in the world, said \”Not quite. On the count of three, I will disappear.\” As the men looked around confused, Juan began to count. \”Uno. Dos.\” And he disappeared without a tres.
