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.
Stanley Nwabali and Francis Uzoho are the two main characters in Nigeria's goalkeeping drama, with Amas Obasogie the seeming bystander waiting in the wings to pick up whatever scraps drop from that table.
South Africa secured a scrappy but vital 2-1 win over Angola in Marrakesh on Monday courtesy of Burnley striker Lyle Foster's winner to take the early lead in Group B.
