Simply put, Libya was a rough ride for SA. But the African champions of 1996 are back in continental action.
eNCA's Sandile kaNqose and Tshepo Thobane, are at O.R. Tambo International Airport. CourtesyJOHANNESBURG - South Africa has once again come down with a case of Bafana Bafana fever after the team pulled off a 2-1 win over Libya to secure a place at Afcon 2019.
However, what cannot be ignored is that gut feeling of impending, tragic failure most fans have when high on Bafana Bafana fever. South Africa went into the tournament in Egypt boasting the talents of a young, sparky Siphiwe Tshabalala, an experienced Mbulelo Mabizela and an attack made up of Siyabonga Nomvete, Sibusiso Zuma and, of course, Benni McCarthy.
It was a rather unremarkable tournament as far as quality on the pitch goes, but the tournament as a whole was a huge success for Safa.
