WEEKEND SCORECARD: Bafana Bafana Catch Chipolopolo on COSAFA Wins

Share

Bafana Bafana South Africa has caught up with Zambia on the number of COSAFA Cup title victories.

Hosts South Africa lifted the 2021 COSAFA Cup trophy on July 18 when they beat guest side Senegal 5-4 on post-match penalties following a 0-0 draw played at Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium.

South Africa hosted this year’s tournament in Nelson Mandela Bay from July 6-18.

Bafana join Zambia on five COSAFA Cup wins and are now both one title less than record winners Zimbabwe.

Sundays win is South Africa’s first COSAFA Cup victory since taking home the trophy in Windhoek when Namibia hosted the 2016 COSAFA Cup.

Zimbabwe and 2019 champions Zambia both made a poor showing at the 2021 COSAFA Cup where they were both eliminated at the group stage.

  1. Bafana Bafana featured a side B Unfortunately Faz were desperate for some silverware, they to force coach to feature Zambia A which lamentably failed

  2. I do not support Bafana Bafana but they showed commitment and patriotism. Our boys do not take wearing the national jersey seriously. They are too casual and uncommitted. Herve Renard won us the 2012 afcon cup because he brought commitment, self belief and pride in the team. By the way Lusaka Times update us on progress about replacement of the coach.
