Defending champions Gaborone United GU Ladies, also known as the Red Roses, overcame an early deficit to defeat Lesotho Defence Force LDF 2-1 in their opening CAF Women鈥檚 Champions League COSAFA Qualifiers Group A match at the GU Stadium.
LDF took the lead in the 16th minute with a goal from Keitumetse Namane. Despite creating opportunities, GU struggled to convert chances, with coach Khalid Ninyonzima noting that anxiety affected his players. The victory earns the hosts three crucial points, but also highlighted areas for improvement as they prepare to face stronger opponents like Herentals Queens and last year鈥檚 finalists ZESCO Ndola Girls.
