The 1st half ended goalless and the South Africans resumed the 2nd half probing for the much-needed goal.
Ghana’s Goalkeeper Richard Ofori got injured and was substituted by Ati Zigi. Bafana Bafana got a fortuitous goal from a cross which hit the South African striker and rolled into the net.
Ati Zigi who had then blocked the goalpost to his right was completely beaten.
Both sides made a number of changes but it was the South Africans who dominated play to carry the day.
With their win, South Africa moved to the summit of Group “G” with 4 points after drawing nil-nil with Zimbabwe on Friday, September 3, 2021.
The Black Stars early 2021, held the Bafana Bafana to a 1-1 draw match in South Africa in an African Cup of Nations Qualifier.
It was a sweet revenge for the South Africans who have never beaten their Ghanaian counterparts since 2006 when they lost 2-nil to the Black Stars in a Germany World Cup Qualifier.
Ethiopia are expected to play Zimbabwe in another Group “G” match. Read Full Story
