IOL’s Matshelane Mamabolo takes a look at some of the top stories in South African football as well as the upcoming FIFA World Cup qualifying doubleheader for Bafana Bafana against Ethiopia. South Africa currently leads Group G with Ghana hot on their tail, and Mamabolo references Ethiopia’s impressive record against Bafana to keep South African fans from being too overconfident. TS Galaxy’s new coach and Pitso Mosimane are also discussed in the column.
In other news related to Bafana Bafana, Sunday Times reports that Orlando Pirates midfielder Goodman Mosele has gone AWOL on the national team with manager Hugo Broos referring to the situation as “disappointing” after Mosele apparently did not show up when the team met up.
