MacLean Letshwiti, the President of the Botswana Football Association has expressed optimism that the county’s female team can top the Super Falcons of Nigeria in the 2022 WAFCON Group C encounter on Thursday.
Botswana who are making their maiden appearance started off on a good note with a 4-2 win over Burundi on Monday while the Falcons were defeated 2-1 by South Africa.
A second win for Botswana against the Nigerian side would secure their qualification for the next round.
Letshwiti called on their team to believe in their ability and give their best to defeat the Falcons in the Thursday encounter.

She said, “Let me congratulate The Mares for putting an excellent shift at work, defeating Burundi by a convincing 4 – 2 score line at the ongoing Wafcon Tournament here in Morocco,” Letshwiti said in a post published in Botswana FA’s Facebook page.
“The Ladies’ thrilling performances (against Burundi) demonstrated beyond doubt that together we can achieve. I therefore humbly urge the Ladies to continue to show their mettle against the best in Africa. A re kgotetseng!
“Further, I wish to also thank the people of Botswana back home for their well wishes and their patriotic spirit, rallying behind this exciting team. We are more than excited about your collective support. Let’s rally more and more behind The Mares, especially in the second match which is a critical encounter in the tournament with its associated pressure and international focus now squarely on The Mares.
