The omission of Themba Zwane from Bafana Bafana’s latest AFCON qualifying squad has columnist Lerato Mkhondo asking an important question: Are we witnessing the end of an era?
The Brazilians' coach has expressed his frustration following a painful CAF Super Cup defeat at the hands of USM Alger. The Portuguese tactician watched his side falter on the continental stage once again, leaving the reigning African champions facing a difficult period of introspection during the international break.
The Brazilians welcomed the Algerian giants to Loftus Versfeld Stadium with both sides chasing continental glory. Masandawana suffered a disappointing defeat though, falling short in their quest to lift the CAF Super Cup title.
