Percy Tau scores two goals as Bafana Bafana qualify for Afcon

The teams went into the break all square, but came out with more purpose in the second period and after Mokotjo had won possession, on the edge of the box, Tau blasted the ball into the corner of the net on 50 minutes.

Keet pushed the ball on to Hlatshwayo, causing the Libyans to bay for a penalty that was correctly not given by Moroccan referee Noureddine El Jaafari, leading to objects to be thrown onto the pitch by the angry crowd.CAF on Twitter But Tau provided another excellent finish from a short-corner as South Africa worked space in the box expertly and the Belgium-based forward picked his spot into the far corner.

Besides the brilliant goals & heroic goal keeping, Bafana lacked creativity & fluidity & were disjointed. For gameplan Baxter gets ZERO. He opted for 2 left backs (Maela & Hlanti), leaving Lebo Mothiba, a natural left winger out & played one hard marker (Furman) in midfield.
