South Africa defeat Tanzania 1-0

South Africa

South Africa held out for a narrow 1-0 win over hosts Tanzania in an international friendly at the National Stadium in Dar es Salaam on Saturday evening. Defender Siyabonga Sangweni scored the game’s only goal just before half time.

After dominating the first half and deservedly taking the lead, Bafana Bafana had to weather a storm from the Taifa Stars in the second stanza. Coach Pitso Mosimane will no doubt be pleased with the result, achieved with a shadow squad made up almost entirely of local players, and at handing ten players their first senior caps in the match.
