In an exclusive interview with Showmax Premier League, Moodaly shared her profound message for the team: “Trust in yourselves and each other. Stick together no matter what happens.

“Take it one game at a time, and don’t let the pressure or expectations get in the way of enjoying the moment. And remember why you're there, to represent the country with pride and to make history again.”

Moodaly, an experienced midfielder who featured in two Olympic Games and a Women’s World Cup, and was a vital part of the victorious 2022 WAFCON squad, vividly recalled that historic triumph.

“It was honestly incredible. Being part of that squad and making history for South Africa was something I'll never forget. There was such a strong sense of unity, pride, and belief in the team. From the first game to the final whistle, you could feel how much it meant to everyone the players, the staff, the supporters back home. It was emotional and special in every way.”

She further emphasised the personal significance of that win.
