Percy Tau's return to scoring form and steady rejuvenation of his career at Al Ahly comes at the perfect time for Bafana Bafana.
Tau, whose two assists and stunning strike helped Ahly beat Coton Sport 4-0 on Friday to keep their hopes of reaching the Caf Champions League quarterfinals alive, will join the Bafana camp this week for the crucial back-to-back Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers against Liberia.
The Bafana star played in all four games — two as a starter — and scored in the 3-0 win against Auckland City as Ahly finished fourth at the Fifa Cup World Cup in Morocco last month. He was a 61st-minute substitute in the 4-1 semifinal defeat against tournament victors Real Madrid. Apart from his goal against last-placed Coton Sport, Tau scored in the 5-2 defeat against old club Mamelodi Sundowns at Loftus Versfeld where he was one of the few bright performers in a result that endangered Ahly's progression from the Group B.
