The Citizen|November 18, 2024

Hugo Broos' side have already qualified for the Afcon finals, which will be held in Morocco at the end of next year. A hard-fought victory over Uganda in Kampala on Friday put them on top of Group K, a position in which Bafana are guaranteed to remain with a victory at the Cape Town Stadium.

South Sudan are coming off a win over Congo-Brazzaville in Juba on Thursday, a result that confirmed Bafana's place at Morocco 2025. It was also the first points that South Sudan have picked up in five Group K qualifying matches up to now.
