Desiree Ellis, head coach of South Africa's senior women's football team, has cautioned her side against getting too ecstatic following their 2-1 victory against Group C rival Nigeria on Monday at the Women's Africa Cup of Nations (AWCON) in Morocco.

“We won’t underestimate any team that is here. I have watched the previous games and one should underestimate a team at your own peril, and this game [against Nigeria] is now behind us,” she told South African Football Association website.

“We knew that we could not physically match them, we knew that our strength was putting the ball on the ground, and we wanted to move the ball much quicker, even though I felt like our ball rotation in the first half was very slow.”

Commenting on the other group matches against Burundi and Botswana, Ellis called for caution.
