South Africa will face Congo at Stade Félix Houphouët-Boigny Stadium, Abidjan in the The Third Champion match of the 2023 Afrika Cup on Saturday, February 10, 2024. The South Africa vs Congo national team match can be watched live streaming, see complete information.
This match was not the final match, but a match for third place in the tournament. Even though it is not the top match, the South Africa vs Congo duel will definitely be an all-out fight to achieve victory.
South Africa, despite having played tenaciously for 120 minutes, had to admit Nigeria’s superiority in the penalty shootout. This defeat means they have to stop in the semifinals and will now meet Congo, who also lost to Ivory Coast in the previous semifinal. These two teams may want to leave a special mark in this historical journey, so the match scenario may be difficult to predict.
South Africa showed no fear when facing Nigeria, the number one contenders, in the semifinals. South Africa’s strong and determined playing style took them to the penalty shootout.
Even though they have been eliminated, their performance is still worthy of recognition. This match against Congo will be an opportunity for South Africa to close their journey in this tournament in proud fashion.
On the other hand, Congo had a relatively easier journey to the semifinals compared to South Africa. However, they had to end their magical story after losing to Ivory Coast. Reaching this stage has exceeded their expectations and this impressive achievement will be a stepping stone for the “Leopards” to continue to develop and revive Congolese football in the future.
After a series of semi-final matches, the physical and mental conditions of both teams may have been significantly eroded. Therefore, they will probably focus more on defense and security in the upcoming matches. It is predicted that the goal-scoring efficiency of both teams will not be too impressive.
With a slight advantage in ability, it seems that Congo is the more favored team in this match. However, looking at the history written by South Africa in this tournament, they fully have the ability to compete with Congo.
