Banyana Banyana's Thembi Kgatlana: 'We don't have to prove anything to anyone'

Banyana Banyana superstar, Thembi Kgatlana, lit up the FIFA Women’s World Cup with her electric pace and superb finishing and although it wasn't enough to get Banyana past the round of 16, it certainly made the world take notice of the talent she is.
While the 27-year-old was shining on the field, things off the field were difficult, with Kgatlana revealing that she had lost three family members in the space of two weeks around the World Cup.

I love her so much, what a baller 🙌 she had an injury that took her out of the game for a little while longer, but she came back like she never was on unfortunate break. What a fighter,what a talent. She is the best!!!!

Thembi ke Star❤

[@bronwenpietersen3366]

Absolutely understandable why you didn't do an interview. I don't think you did anything wrong. We all knew you lost family members and even if that was not the case, the media should ask for consent. You are right, you are a human being before you are a soccer player. Always super proud of you and your performance at the World Cup. Love and light to you 💛

[@noncedozulu8792]

I love you Thembi ❤

Don't feel bad for not giving an interview thembi, you were very clear when you said "no interview". Again, SAFA is run by non footballers. Hence, again we see unprofessionalism when it comes to taking care of players.
