JOHANNESBURG, SOUTH AFRICA - OCTOBER 13: Khanyisa Mayo of South Africa and Sifiso Matse of Eswatini during the international friendly match between South Africa and Eswatini at FNB Stadium on October 13, 2023 in Johannesburg, South Africa. Bafana made wholesale changes from their win over Democratic Republic of Congo, as only Siyanda Xulu, Nyiko Mobbie, Mihlali Mayambela and Lyle Foster retained their places, with the likes of Themba Zwane and Teboho Mokoena returning.
The hosts started on a bright note as Zwane had a chance to give them the lead within five minutes with a sight of goal in the box but his shot was saved by goalkeeper Khayakwezwe Shabalala. Hugo Broos' charges had spaces in attack and Foster had two chances in a short space of time after 25 minutes but he blazed his shots over the crossbar on both occasions.
Bafana upped their tempo after that and Mobbie fancied his chances ten minutes before the interval with a low drive from a set-piece routine from range that was smothered by Shabalala. Eswatini had a rare chance on a counter-attack towards the end of the first stanza but they could not capitalize in the box and South Africa continued their dominance on the ball but they could not turn it into opportunities, as the sides went to the break deadlocked.For 14 free days, you can have access to the best from Soccer Laduma, KickOff, Daily Sun, TrueLove and Drum.
