WATCH: Baxter leads Bafana celebrations in dressing room

was well documented as his brace secured South Africa’s passage to Egypt in June.

After a goalless first half, the speedy striker took just five minutes into the second half to give South Africa the advantage, although Libya equalised with a controversial penalty kick.Tau’s first goal was a superb strike from outside the box while his second had pace and precision that gave the Libyan goalkeeper no chance.

Every player contributed, none more so than outstanding goalkeeper Darren Keet who made several saves throughout the match. The back four, well marshaled by captain Thulani Hlatshwayo, resembled the old Berlin Wall in which Sifiso Hlanti, BuhleDean Furman was rock solid in the midfield alongside Kamohelo Mokotjo, while Themba Zwane and Lebogang Mothiba never stopped running.

After the final whistle, Stuart Baxter led the dressing room celebrations with famous South African chants.

Percy Tau scores two goals as Bafana Bafana qualify for AfconSouth Africa’s ‘lion’ Percy Tau scored a brilliant brace to book Bafana Bafana’s place at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) finals after a nervous 2-1 victory over Libya at a packed Stade Taïeb Mhiri in neutral Sfax, Tunisia on Sunday. 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.
