It seems like Gordon Igesund, the Bafana Bafana coach, is facing a challenging situation with a series of injuries affecting his squad. After Tsepo Masilela and Kagisho Dikgacoi, Siboniso Gaxa is the latest player to withdraw from South Africa’s upcoming matches due to a thigh injury. Gaxa had to leave his place during Kaizer Chiefs’ recent victory over Super Sport United in the Nedbank Cup.
To address the absence of Gaxa, Igesund has decided to recall Siyanda Xulu. The team is gearing up to face the Central African Republic and Ethiopia in their next matches scheduled for June. The regrouping course is set to begin on Wednesday.
This string of injuries poses a challenge for the coach in preparing a competitive squad for the upcoming matches, but the addition of Siyanda Xulu aims to compensate for the loss of Gaxa. The team will have to adapt and strategize to maintain their performance despite these setbacks
