The teams from Group A are back on the field on January 23 after their silent first outing. After Johannesburg, they head to Durban for their second group match.
In the opening match, South Africa faces Angola. If there’s a reason not to miss this match, it’s this; the loser condemns himself. So who could allow his team to believe in “qualification”? Siphiwe Tshabalala: The Bafana Bafana midfielder will, despite himself, carry the hopes of the Rainbow nation. The first scorer of the 2010 World Cup would be well-inspired to regain his World Cup form to inspire his teammates. A poor performance this evening (3 p.m. UT), and the CAN will continue without Bongani Khumalo and his teammates. Manucho Gonçalves: Elected man of the match in the first outing of the Palancas Negras by the editorial staff of Africatopsports, the captain of the Palancas Negras will still be expected during this match. Less successful against Morocco, the Real Valladolid striker can, at any time, silence the Moses Mabhida Stadium.
