Post Match Comments:
Bafana Bafana stand-in coach Morena Ramoreboli - "Last year we managed to win it (COSAFA Under-17 Championship) with under-17s and here we are again with Bafana today.
It's a great achievement. It is through hard work and the support we got from the association, it made things very easy for us."
Siyethemba Sithebe - "From the start the team has been working, the coaches, tactically and everything, everyone worked. I would like to than the coaches for the opportunity they have given me leading up to the final.
I thought it would be difficult to adjust because at Amazulu I play more attacking but here, the coach had his own plans but I managed to play deep."
