Onyedikachi Ononogbu, Tshakhuma Tsha Madzivhandila, NFD, U-23Ryan Wilkisky/ BackpagePix
Nkosinathi Onyedikachi Ononogbu of National First Division side Tshakhuma Tsha Madzivhandila is gutted at missing out on selection for the SA U23 squad that will play in the 2020 Olympic qualifiers. Born of Nigerian father, it's possible that his surname may have counted against him - maybe selectors thought he's not eligible to represent SA.
However, Ononogbu is eligible to play for the country of his birth. He has a South African mother and was born and raised in Ivory Park, Midrand. "I thought I deserve a chance, but I guess it's not my time," said Ononogbu, who has six goals in the NFD this season.
