The World Cup Qualifier against Zimbabwe at FNB stadium on Thursday has almost been forgotten about. Bafana won by 1-0 after Teboho Mokoena found the back of net in the 26th minute giving South Africa the much-needed three points as they advance in Group G and top the table on 13 points.
The win according to Coach Hugo Broos, was scrappy and he feels his team did not perform at their peak.
“I believe in this team and I know what they can do. Against Zimbabwe they did not perform as we had planned, it was scrappy and they know it. They’ll have to do better against Ghana. We need to win well away,” said Coach Hugo Broos.
If Bafana win or draw against Ghana on Sunday, they will advance to the next round of qualifying. The ten Africa group winners then play in five home and away knockout matches in March 2022. Five winners then secure World Cup qualification. A loss will end the national team’s hopes.
Any form of a win for the Black Stars, on the other hand, will see them book qualification to the next play-offs in the qualification for the Qatar 2022 FIFA World Cup.
The latest team news from the Bafana Bafana camp is that Evidence Makgopa took a knock at training on Saturday, and is still being monitored by the team Doctor Tshepo Molobi, the rest of the team are fully fit for selection.
The match is scheduled for 21h00 SA time, live on SABC 1, TelkomOne, DTT, Open View Channel 124.
Meanwhile, Ghanaians can also watch the epic clash on GTV Sports +.
