In City_Press Sport today: Bafana have no reason to miss the (Afcon) boat this time; Sundowns’ CAF run presents another headache for the PSL as their fixtures clash; South African assistant referee Zakhele Siwela will be flying the country’s flag high
Here are some of the headlines in your City Press Sport section today:The ramifications of Bafana Bafana failing to qualify for yet another major tournament will be huge.
South Africa had promised so much in their Afcon qualifying campaign, only to find themselves with a knife at the throat in their final group game.Mamelodi Sundowns were on Friday due to submit a comprehensive proposal to the PSL to have the club’s remaining Absa Premiership fixtures rejigged. Sundowns will face Al Ahly of Egypt over two legs, the dates of which fall on the same weekend as the South African champions’ upcoming PSL fixtures against SuperSport United and Baroka FC next month.A new name dropped into the top 50 of the official world golf ranking this past week, and it belongs to a golfer with a cheeky, lopsided grin and a pair of blue eyes that are themselves now trying to see just how far this little journey is going to go.
Another player headed in that direction, in my view, is Hendrick Pule Ekstein. Excuse me for being a phlegmatic, grumpy old man, but I don’t understand the hype about this underperformer. While most South African match officials have been twiddling their thumbs during this Fifa international week, assistant referee Zakhele Siwela will be flying the country’s flag high.
