WITH Lesotho brushed aside last week with a 3-0 drubbing, Bafana Bafana next assignment is Nigeria for the WC qualifiers.
Bloemfontein, once again is the host city. And the game game kicks-off at 18:00.
SA who dished out a superb performance against no-hopers Lesotho last week during the CAF FIFA World Cup qualifiers, should guard against complacency on Tuesday evening.
On the other hand, Nigeria, unconvincingly won their last game last week duel against Rwanda 1-0.
Off the field, as Bafana face Nigeria, one would pray that FIFA does not deduct all important three-points as a result of fielding the suspended Tebogo Mokoena in the 2-0 win over Lesotho in March, and therefore there’s degree of uncertainty regarding the true status of the group.
With the boys seemingly gelling well, they know a win against Nigeria is inevitable should the unthinkable happen from head honchos at Switzerland.
Bafana are firmly top of Group C with 16 points — five clear of second-placed Benin.
Date: Tuesday, September 9. Kick-off 18:00.
Venue: Toyota Stadium, Bloemfontein.
