Molefi Ntseki made a successful start as Bafana Bafana coach after Sunday’s 2-1 victory over Mali in the Nelson Mandela Challenge in Port Elizabeth.

With much bigger challenges to come‚ he will be glad to get his first win under his belt and break his duck as he looks ahead to next month’s Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers away in Ghana and home to Sudan.

A poor start to one of three stints in charge of the side for Sono‚ though months later he took the team to the final of the 1998 Africa Cup of Nations and later returned to led them at the World Cup in 2002. Moloto was axed in September 2000 despite leading Bafana to third-place at the Nations Cup that year.Queiroz’s first game in charge was a goalless draw with a star-studded France at Soccer City‚ with the newly-crowned world champions bringing the likes of Lilian Thuram‚ Marcel Desailly‚ Claude Makélélé‚ Patrick Vieira‚ Nicolas Anelka and Thierry Henry.

Quo Vadis, Bafana Bafana?I don’t believe that Safa itself believes Molefi Ntseki will do a good job as Bafana Bafana coach. It’s a pity that a helpless man has been thrown into the deep end with prior knowledge that he can’t even swim, writes Letepe Maisela Who even is Letepe maisela?
