It is not easy. Having a dream, having talent and being faced with a world that wants you to have neither – it is not easy. This is not an easy story. This is a book about difficult odds, about cruelty, about broken families and addiction. This is also a story about hope.

This is a tale of bravery and the undefeatability of the spirit of South African women. This is a story about football, but it is a story about so much more. This is a tale about the fearless women who carry the sport on their back, told through the eyes of the best player on the African continent. This is the story of a little girl who rose out of the tough streets of Mohlakeng and went on to become a champion of the world.

Nikolaos Kirkinis is the author of the bestselling book The Curse of Teko Modise. He was born and raised in Johannesburg and holds two degrees from the University of Stellenbosch.
