Basetsana face Zambia in the second-leg of their 2016 Women's U20 World Cup qualifier after the first-leg of the tie in Zambia finished 0-0.

The match will be played on Saturday at the Makhulong Stadium in Soweto and Salgado is confident her side will be able to finish off the job after their hard work in Zambia.

"This weekend we are going in strong and we expect to score some goals and not to concede. We are really up for this game. We played against them in the first-leg, we got to see their weaknesses and where we can capitalise," Salgado said in an official press release.

"The fact that we also know what to expect will push us to go in stronger. We are playing at home and cannot afford to lose when we did so well away.

"With the formation that we are playing, I want to believe our defence will be very strong as we cannot afford to let in even one goal as that would be a mountain to climb for us. I strongly believe in the capability of the players in camp.

"As we speak now, when I think about qualifying I can feel some goose bumps all over me. If we can do that (qualify) it is going to be a great achievement for us as a team and for women's football in general."
