Ellis: Selections are never easy

JOHANNESBURG - Desiree Ellis has named her Banyana Banyana squad for the upcoming Women’s Afcon qualifiers.

After receiving a first-round bye as defending champions, South Africa kicks off their second-round campaign against Burkina Faso in a two-legged clash.

Contrary to popular belief, Ellis says Mamelodi Sundowns Ladies’ victory in the continent and continuous improvement in women’s football makes selection even more difficult.
