2021 AFCON Qualifier: SA to arrive in Ghana Tonite

2021 AFCON Qualifier: SA to arrive in Ghana Tonite

South Africa will arrive in Ghana on Monday night to ensure early preparations for Thursday’s 2021 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier in Cape Coast and return on Friday.

Bafana Bafana were originally scheduled to arrive in the Ghanaian capital on Tuesday but changed their plans to ensure early acclimatization.

This means they will have two days of preparations in Ghana before they take on the Black Stars to ensure they can give off their best in the game.

Ghana and South Africa met in June part of preparations for this year’s Afcon, with the game ending 0-0 in the United Arab Emirates.



The last official match between the two sides was the qualifying campaign was for the 2006 Fifa World Cup where the Black Stars emerged top of the group.

Ghana recorded back-to-back wins over Bafana Bafana to qualify for their maiden World Cup appearance.

However Bafana Bafana have seen some revival for the past two years culminating in some good showing at the recent Africa Cup of Nations tournament in Egypt.

Meanwhile, Kaizer Chiefs midfielder Lebogang Manyama has been called up to Bafana Bafana for the two crucial Cameroon 2021 Africa Cup of Nations clashes against Ghana and Sudan.

Manyama, who has already reported for national team duty, replaces the injured Themba Zwane of Mamelodi Sundowns.
