South Africa advanced to the semifinals after defeating Senegal through a penalty shootout at the TotalEnergies CAF Women's Africa Cup of Nations. The defending champions secured a 4-1 victory from the spot following a scoreless regulation and extra time period. Goalkeeper Andile Dlamini delivered the decisive performance by stopping two penalty attempts from Senegal players. Both teams struggled to find the net during the full 120 minutes of play despite creating multiple scoring opportunities.

The quarterfinal match featured strong defensive displays from each side. South African attackers Jermaine Seoposenwe, Hildah Magaia, and Karabo Dhlamini faced excellent goalkeeping from Senegal's Adji Ndiaye. Senegal threatened through Mama Diop and Nguenar Ndiaye but could not break through Dlamini's solid presence. Video review officials dismissed a potential penalty appeal for South Africa during regular play.

Four South African players converted their penalty kicks with precision during the shootout. Karabo Dhlamini, Tiisetso Makhubela, Gabriela Salgado, and Bambanani Mbane all scored successfully. The victory sets up a semifinal encounter between South Africa and Nigeria.
