This year’s COSAFA Cup, which will be held in Bloemfontein, South Africa, and features 14 teams: the host nation, Mozambique, Mauritius and Zimbabwe are in Group A; reigning champions Angola, as well as Namibia, Malawi and Lesotho in Group B; Group C has Eswatini, Madagascar and Tanzania; while Group D comprises Botswana, Comoros and Zambia.
We remain steadfast in our commitment to spotlighting Botswana’s finest talent, bringing our local heroes to your screens as they showcase their prowess and fly the national flag with pride. It’s a stirring time to be a Motswana, as the nation once again rallies behind a team that has consistently proven its mettle on the regional stage.

The Zebras have etched their name into COSAFA Cup history with grit and determination, having reached the finals in both 2016 and 2019, and finishing as runners-up in 2018 and 2021. Notably, in 2019, they came agonisingly close to clinching the title, narrowly edged out by Zambia with a 1 – 0 defeat in the final.

“As we bring you every heart-racing moment of the COSAFA Cup, we invite fans to witness the action on the DStv Family package for just BWP295 per month,” said Thembile Legwaila, MultiChoice Botswana’s Head of Marketing. “It’s more than football, it’s national pride in motion.”
Round-robin matches will be played from June 4 to June 11. The top team from each group will advance into the semifinals (to be played on June 13), followed by a third-place playoff and final (June 15).
Highlights in the group stage are a renewal of the rivalry between South Africa and Zimbabwe – five-time champions Bafana Bafana are seeking a first trophy since 2021, while six-time winners the Warriors have not held the silverware aloft since 2018 – as well as a repeat of last year’s final between Angola and Namibia.

Seven-time winners Zambia will back themselves to get past Comoros and Botswana, while East African nation Tanzania will feature as guests, replacing Morocco (who were initially named in the tournament draw but were forced to withdraw).
It is notable that nations usually do not field their strongest ‘A’ teams in the COSAFA Cup but rather select squads which reflect the brightest talents and most exciting young players in their domestic leagues.
