Bongani Zungu’s second half goal earned Bafana a hard-fought victory against the Brave Warriors in the Southern African Derby
South Africa recorded their first victory in the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) Group D fixture when they edged out Namibia 1-0 in Cairo on Friday night.
Bafana Bafana were desperate for a victory after losing 1-0 to Ivory Coast’s Elephants on Monday afternoon.
Stuart Baxter made four changes to the team which faced the Elephants with Darren Keet, Hlompho Kekana, Bongani Zungu and Sibusiso Vilakazi making their first starts in the tournament.
On the other hand, the Brave Warriors were searching for their first-ever victory at the Afcon finals after succumbing to a 1-0 defeat to Morocco’s Atlas Lions on Sunday afternoon.
