The decisive moment came in the last minute, thanks to Thembi Kgatlana’s brilliant strike, securing South Africa’s spot alongside Nigeria as the two African teams advanced to the knockout stages.

Overflowing with excitement, Anderson took to social media to express his joy and support for Banyana Banyana, donning his ‘Just a Kid from Cape Town’ cap.

Italy took an early lead through Arianna Caruso in an exhilarating match on Wednesday morning. However, the South Africans fought back with their own goal from Benedetta Orsi, leaving the team’s level at the break.

After the halftime interval, South Africa showcased their determination, with Hildah Magaia smashing home a goal assisted by Thembi Kgatlana. Caruso’s second goal equalized for Italy, setting up an intense showdown. But ultimately, Banyana Banyana had the last laugh with Kgatlana’s decisive strike, as reported by irishtimes.com.

This achievement marks a significant milestone for South Africa’s women’s soccer team, and Anthony Anderson’s warm encouragement adds to the jubilation surrounding their impressive journey in the tournament.
