South Africa’s golden girl Caster Semenya paid a visit to Banyana Banyana team in their hotel in Paris on Wednesday.
This comes ahead of their 2019 Fifa Women’s World Cup group match against China on Thursday.
Semenya has been in France for athletics purpose, where she took the first place in 2000-metres race at the Montreuil athletics on Tuesday night.
The 29-year-old says the reason for her visit was to give Banyana moral support.
The South African women’s team lost their opening game against Spain last Saturday and currently sits at the bottom of Group B.
Semenya says the girls can still do better going forward. – Report by Sinovuyo Ndudane

“I thought I should come here & show them that we are behind them all the way, if I can win so can they. They must go out there & fight as a team. Being here is a token of appreciation from me to them,” Caster Semenya to @Banyana_Banyana #DareToShine #fifawwc #BanyanaBanyana pic.twitter.com/RqV7Q090Pw
