Rasheedat Ajibade grabbed the winning goal from the penalty spot two minutes before the break.
The Super Falcons clearly outplayed their opponent but were denied a couple of times by South Africa goalkeper Kaylin Swart.
Waldrum claimed the Super Falcons were unlucky not to score more goals in the encounter.

“(Chinwendu) Ihezuo was fantastic, she was the player of the match even if she didn’t score, her hold-up play was great, she has been playing well in Mexico this season, I think they were not prepared for her.”
The second leg will be played in Pretoria next week Tuesday.
