The 21-year-old attacker, a talented forward in her own right, joined Sundowns Ladies from Sasol League Side Vasco Da Gama in 2022. 

Minnies was the Sasol League National Championship's top scorer and won the the Best Player of the Tournament award before making the move to Banyana Ba Style. 

She also represented South Africa at the FIFA U-17 Women's World Cup. 

Minnie has also been nicknamed 'Big-name cracker' because of her "ability to score some cracking goals". 

Comparisons in football are sometimes unavoidable, and Minnies has not been in the spotlight for her footballing talent and achievements, but for her striking similarity to Ronaldinho. 

One Twitter user claimed that the young forward looks "more like Ronaldinho than Ronaldinho".

Other users were quick to express their thoughts on the comparison, jokingly insinuating that Ronaldinho may have been partying in South Africa 22 years ago.
