The Buccaneers replaced Jose Riveiro with the Moroccan coach before the start of the current season and have continued as a competitive unit. They have already lifted two trophies this term, underlining the team’s ability to remain successful despite the change on the bench. Even though they have fallen well short of Riveiro’s run of reaching last season's CAF Champions League final, the Soweto giants and their coach remain highly regarded.

South Africa has three clubs left in the continental competitions this season, all with realistic chances of winning silverware outside the domestic scene. The Brazilians are competing in the premier club tournament they last won in 2016 and eager to reclaim their place at the summit of African football. Meanwhile, Amakhosi and the Cape Winelands side are contesting the second-tier competition, offering the two clubs a genuine opportunity to end their continental droughts.

South Africa are fresh from a not-so-satisfying Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) outing in Morocco, where they failed to get past the Round of 16 just two years after finishing third in Ivory Coast. The main focus now is the forthcoming global competition that will be co-hosted by the United States, Canada, and Mexico.

After Bafana Bafana's elimination from the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON), coach Hugo Broos has been trending in Mzansi. Some have been showing immense support for the veteran tactician, while a section is not satisfied with the exploits in Morocco, where they feel South Africa could have done better.

South Africa's national team failed to deliver the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) as the majority of their supporters had anticipated after getting eliminated in the Round of 16 by the five-time champions, the Indomitable Lions of Cameroon. The preparations for the 2026 FIFA World Cup have now begun.

In a season where they are hoping to win at least a trophy, Amakhosi are expected to keep the players who are deemed pivotal in the campaign. One of the stars that has been outstanding in the season will have his contract expire in a matter of months, and there have been questions on whether it will be extended or not. The agent has now cleared the air and revealed what the situation is like.

The Belgian tactician insists the national team lacks players who have been exposed to top leagues in Europe as opposed to their opponents on the continent. Ahead of the 2026 FIFA World Cup to be co-hosted by the United States, Mexico, and Canada, the 73-year-old has hinted Mzansi should not expect miracles unless more of his potential squad play regularly in 'tough' overseas divisions.

We ask the question whether the Belgian tactician is still the right man to lead South Africa to the World Cup? Or has his time at the helm of the national team come to a natural end after a series of questionable decisions around the make up of his squad and the First XI choices he made at the biennial tournament?

The Premier Soccer League teams are strengthening their teams as the South African top tier enters a critical stage in the next couple of weeks following the Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) break that allowed Bafana Bafana to prepare and compete in the biennial competition. Clubs have limited times to sign players they need.

After South Africa failed to reach the last eight, several factors have been cited as contributing reasons for the poor showing in Morocco. But Broos has been mainly blamed for his tactics and changes to the line-up. Following the struggle, questions are now raised on whether Bafana will indeed manage to mount a better campaign during the upcoming global showpiece.

It’s no secret that pulling on the jersey of one of the Premier Soccer League's big three clubs is every player’s fast track to bigger dreams, complete with the perks, pressure, and glory that come with those famous badges; however, not everyone survives the ride. Some crash, some thrive. For the 25-year-old Bucs star, it’s been a winning journey, with the move to the Sea Robbers bringing a major boost both on and off the pitch.

The 38-year-old former Orlando Pirates and Masandawana tactician has been proving his doubters wrong with his tactics in North Africa, where he is currently contracted to the Algerian League 1 outfit, a couple of months after leaving Morocco's Botola Pro league. The South African has been linked to the Glamour Boys.

The Super Eagles, who have won the competition three times - 1980 when they hosted it, 1994 in Tunisia, and 2013 in South Africa, were in a class of their own against Os Mambas in a Round of 16 assignment played at the Fez Stadium on Monday night. It was a game they needed to win as they chase their fourth crown, having come close in 2023.
