While this is South Africa’s first ever appearance in the world cup. Getting out of the group stage will no doubt be the first target for them.

Captain and Vice-Captain options:

Jennifer Hermoso – The Atletico Madrid forward has scored 28 times in 66 games for Spain and is fourth in her country’s all-time top scorers list.
Vicky Losada – Scorer of Spain’s first ever World Cup goal in 2015, the Barcelona midfielder will be key to Spain’s success this summer.

Patricia Guijarro – One of the best emerging young women footballers, Patricia Guijarro is one player to keep an eye on.

She emerged as the ultimate superstar at the 2018 FIFA Under-20 Women’s World Cup where she won almost everything on offer. With six goals and three assists, she bagged both the Golden Boot (top scorer) and Golden Ball (best player).

X-Factor:

Despite playing at the back as a central defender, Irene Paredes is a threat in goal for the opponents all day long. She was Spain’s 2nd top scorer during the World Cup qualifying campaign with 4 goals. Surely, she is one of the best defenders in the world right now.
