Coach Jerry’s team will be looking to send a strong and menacing message to their continental competitors ahead of the CAF Women’s Champions League with 5 games remaining in the current season.
Oratile Mokwena, a midfielder, thinks the squad is eager to go to Morocco in the greatest manner possible.
We are enjoying the games as they come, which are coming thick and fast for us. Because we will be competing against some of the top teams on the continent in Morocco, these games keep us in condition. I must praise our perseverance and consistency from the very beginning of the season. Everyone on the squad is driven to succeed, and we are committed to scoring as many points as possible in each game we play. We are psychologically prepared for anybody coming in our way because we will be so eager to win the Hollywoodbets Super League before we go to Morocco, Oratile said.
