South African Premier News
With the Africa Cup of Nations Last 16 here, we have some juicy ties to look forward to, including Algeria vs DR Congo and South Africa vs Cameroon.
Stellenbosch FC have appointed four-time South African Premiership-winning head coach Gavin Hunt as Steve Barker's replacement.
Heading into South Africa's final Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) group fixture against Zimbabwe in Marrakesh on Monday, Hugo Broos' men need a draw to secure their progression to the knockout rounds.
Hugo Broos has yet to hand Relebohile Mofokeng his first start of AFCON, but in Bafana Bafana's final group stage fixture against Zimbabwe on Monday, the Orlando Pirates star should be the first name on his team sheet.
There were few positives from Bafana Bafana's three-point FIFA World Cup qualifying points deduction, but being in the centre of the storm taught Teboho Mokoena a lesson about his own, and others', mental health.
