A rare brilliant performance has given Banyana Banyana a place is History after beating Azure 3 goals to 2 in a thrilling encounter and match that kept everyone on their seats and on the urge until the last final whistle.
Italy led early in the match from the penalty spot after Dlamini clumsily brought down a player in the box. However the scoreline was level through a rather spectacular own goal from an Italian defender who completely did not look up before playing the ball back with power and there was nothing the Italian keeper could do. Banyana Banyana took the lead after a well worked out run by Magaia who was expertly picked up by Thembi Katlana. The two were to later combine again to find the winner after Italy had equalised from a corner.
