Mpho Letsholonyane makes history

As the world watched the world cup finals in anticipation, Mpho Letsholonyane was breaking a record.

She is the first South African woman to present the FIFA World Cup finals.

Mpho took time to share her excitement.

“In 2013 when I moved from Randburg to Auckland Park, I was told that I should consider my career over…Today I became the 1st woman in Mzansi to host a FIFA World Cup Final on TV. Hard work and dedication pays off eventually. This day will go down as a HUGE highlight in my sporting career…Thank you to the SABC management who believed in me. As well as all those who rooted for me behind the scenes. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.”
