South Africa and Ghana drew 2-2 at Cairo International Stadium in theΒ U23 Africa Cup of Nations third/fourth place playoff, before Amaglug-glug won the game 6-5 on penalties.
We share with you the highlights of South African fans celebrating their qualification for the Tokyo 2020 Summer Olympics men's footballΒ event.
The SABC's Velile Mnyandu and the Ghana Premier League Twitter accounts also posted the goals of the winners, South Africa.
We shared these goals by Habib Mohammed and Kamohelo Mahlatsi. Then we provide Ghanaian fanΒ reaction to losing yet another penalty shootout.
Many supporters speak about so-called penalty ''curses'' or how they're waiting for the day Ghana will finally win a shootout.
I still remember back in 2000 when we went to Vosloorus Stadium to go support Amaglug glug qualify for the Olympics. @MatthewBoothZA was the captain and that day we defeated New Zealand if my memory serves me well.

What I like about coach David Notoane & his technical team is the consistency in their play. Weβve followed the team throughout in this journey. Theyβve been to U17 WC with coach Ntseki, 2 U20 WCs with coach @ThaboSenong & now off to #Tokyo2020 , trust the process. @SinesiphoMali pic.twitter.com/fNOkmTj6e7
