'I felt that after we scored‚ through Linda Motlhalo‚ we had control of the game‚ but we gave the ball away in a silly fashion in key areas.'
Banyana‚ who also failed to convert a penalty by Leandra Smeda‚ let a lead 1-0 slip to extend their winless run to eight matches and they missed out on what could have been a morale-boosting win against another World Cup participant.
“I thought the first half we dealt well with everything‚ we are always very organised at the back and the players must take credit for that because they put in the hard work. We do need to minimise our mistakes‚ but I thought everybody put in a magnificent effort‚ we really worked for each other.” “We look at the bigger picture and that is the World Cup. We are happy with the effort‚ but there is still a concern that we are not scoring enough goals with the chances that we create.
“It is going to be a tough challenge‚ it will give us an indication of where we are at‚” Van Wyk said. “We know what our opponents are about‚ we watched Spain in the Cyprus Cup‚ the Chinese we have played before and the Germans‚ we know what quality they are.
