Thabo Senong's final Amajita squad for U-20 AFCON qualifier

The game will kick off at 15h00 at Campo de Ferroviaro da Beira.

Senong has trimmed his unit from 27 players to 20 following a training camp in Johannesburg.

Missing out on the trip across the border are: goalkeeper Giovanni Idi (University of Pretoria); defenders Gcina Mlotshwa (Bloemfontein Celtic), Thabo Mokoena (Kaizer Chiefs) and Saluleko Mathonsi (Wits University); midfielder Roberto Fragale, (Highlands Park) and strikers Tristan Nikitaridis (University of Johannesburg) and Jermaine George (Old Mutual Academy).

Amajita return to South Africa on Sunday and are expected to move their base camp to Rustenburg the next day for the second leg, which is scheduled for May 20 at Moruleng Stadium at 15h00.

The AFCON tournament will take place in Niger from February 24 to March 10, 2019.

Eight nations will participate in the competition – and the top four countries will qualify as African representatives for the 2019 FIFA U-20 World Cup, to be held in Poland.
