About Mzansi Soccer Girl
Football is more than a game. It’s the stories, the people, the moments and the memories that come with it.
I’m Jana, the face behind Mzansi Soccer Girl, a South African football content creator, presenter and football fan.
Mzansi Soccer Girl was created from a simple love for the beautiful game and a desire to showcase football from a fan’s perspective.

Here, you’ll find a mix of football news, stories, experiences, opinions and content, with a particular focus on South African players, local football and the moments that make being a football fan so special.
