Busisiwe “Busi96” Masango-Steenkamp is a 26-year-old football fanatic first caught the attention of Goliath FIFA players Thabo “YvngSavage” Moloi and Julio “Beast” Bianchi during the FIFA Play Like A Girl initiative which Goliath Gaming co-hosted. Beast had a chance to play Siiwe in a friendly Queen of the Hill competition, after she was the last queen standing. While Beast won the match up he was instantly impressed with Siiwe’s game play and ability to read her opponent.
The first African player to qualify for the FIFAe World Cup was quick to praise Siiwe’s play style and said he believed she had the ability to take on some of South Africa’s top competitors. Siiwe, at the time, had not considered competitive FIFA play a possibility, saying Play FIFA Like A Girl was the catalyst which made her realise she wanted to actively pursue competitive play and compete at the highest level in 2022.
