Last year, South Africa won the COSAFA Cup. This is their second title in four years, the first being in 2021.

At the beginning of the year, the national team played in the African Cup, where they managed to reach the semi-finals, losing to the Nigerians in a series of post-match penalties. In the match for third place, they played with the DR Congo and were able to take bronze medals there, but it also came down to a lottery. Now we will see if they can successfully perform in this tournament.
