Latest reports suggest the South African Football Association has opted for a bold move: finalising the Teboho Mokoena yellow card blunder via internal ballot. The decision could have major implications for Tseka, whose oversight during the Lesotho qualifier remains under scrutiny.

The Simba SC midfielder is fully behind South Africa as they seek the victory that could propel the national team to the World Cup finals for the first time since the country hosted the 2010 version of the quadrennial event.

Said trip was eventually completed some 12 hours later than initially planned.
