Bafana Bafana will not have too long to mope about their Africa Cup of Nations exit.

The South Africans lost 3-1 on penalties to Mali in the quarterfinals on Saturday, but will already play their next game in March – a crucial 2014 World Cup qualifier against Central African Republic at home on the 23rd.

Six days later they travel to Addis Ababa for a match against Ethiopia.

Bafana face an uphill battle to finish top of their group, having drawn two games already against Ethiopia and Botswana.

Meanwhile, Safa will have a technical meeting next week to discuss possible venues for the qualifier against Central African Republic.

I hope common sense prevails this time kwi-Safa, Moses Mabhida should be used for Bafana home games in World Cup qualifiers for continuity purposes.

With Mphela, Letsllonyana, Khumalo, Gaxa, Masilea, Paralympic Shabba, Majoro and Parker, the Bafana Bafana must forget it. THEY WILL SIMPLY NOT QUALIFY!!! Mark my words.

Morgan Goat is back and the Barbie doll Mathoho is back, Tin towers - Said Gordon Masende at Metro sports center. This simple means Khumalo and Sangweni are out.....Lol....I cant wait to laugh at this Masende team. We know how Benni exposed the Tin towers after he told them that Bafana back 4 which included these tin towers was leaking goals so nothing to worry about.

Bafana Bafana will continue to be dominated by Javelin athletes, not because of favoratism, but because Gordon Masende likes doom doom Javelin soccer which is a brand in Nazoorena. Add to that, Gordon Masende hates Pirates because the fans moer him after they demanded that he leaves the team as Pirates hates Javelin soccer and because the pink ass is stubborn, he refused to resign and the outcome is history. He hates Pirates players because they made him cry like a baby when they snatched the championship after they made him smell it plus the chimpanzees lied to him making him believe he will win it because Pirates does not have what it takes....lol.....Gordon Masende wont win against us...we are going to embarrass him as we make our Safari adventure to gain a second star....the mandate at Pirates is not Quaterfinals, ithe madnate is to win the African championship, ask leal why he was fired.

As long as Bafana Bafana is dominated by Javelin chimpazees who failed with many caps, they will not qualify for World cup!!!

What makes Nemamthondoni to think we can qualify for world cup with these same failures and a clown of a coach who selceted off form and unfit players? If he failed to reach a semi-final in our fatherland, how on earth can these Chimpanzees qualify for world cup? I am done with these clowns?
