“Credit must go to the boys for sticking to the game plan, we missed numerous chances where we should have converted but football is like that and sometimes things don’t go your way.

“We brought Phewa  as an affect player and he did it for us by scoring the all-important goal,” said Motaung.

On the other hand, Richards Bay who are in second position will have to win all their remaining matches to be the champions of GladAfrica and gain promotion to the DStv premiership next season.

  Bafana Bafana have continued to lead the World cup qualifying group G table after beating Zimbabwe 1 – 0 at FNB stadium. Teboho Mokoena goal on the 26 th minute put South Africa on top of the table. The victory against the Warriors have put South Africa on 13 points and three points clear away from Ghana who are in second position with ten points. However, Hugo Broos troops they still need to face a desperate Ghana on Sunday evening. A win or a draw in Ghana will book Bafana Bafana their ticket for the third-round play-offs, while a Ghana win will see Bafana and the Black Stars both end on 13 points and then the goal difference will decide based on FIFA rules. It should be noted, a 1-0 win to Ghana would already be enough for the Black Stars to overtake Bafana on the log based on the overall goals scored. Both teams would end with the same goal difference (+4), if Ghana win by one goal, but the Black Stars will have more goals scored (7 vs 6). South Africa are facing Black Sta

  South Africa will not compete to next year world cup that’s taking place in Qatar. The defeat against Ghana at Cape Coast Sports stadium has left Bafana Bafana in a swallow pill to sour. Andre Ayew who played his 100 th match today for the Black stars has converted the soft penalty against Hugo Broos troops which became the only goal for the day. It remains to be seen whether South Africa will write a letter of complain to CAF and FIFA regarding the decision that was taken by the Senegalese born Maguette Ndiaye.  Both teams finished the group G with same number of points and goal difference, but the Ghanaians will go to the play offs after scoring more goals than Bafana Bafana in the group.
