South Africa and Namibia will meet again in the CAF Africa Cup 2nd round at the Stade Amadou Gon Coulibaly Stadium, Korhogo Sunday, January 21, 2024. Here’s the preview, h2h stats, predicted line-up, TV channel info, live streaming service providers and how to watch online.
Group E’s opening match against Mali ended in defeat for South Africa. Even though they lost 0-2, South Africa showed a good game at the start of the match. They controlled the ball well and created several goal-scoring opportunities. In fact, they got a penalty in the 20th minute. Unfortunately, a missed penalty by Al Ahly star, Percy Tau, caused the team to lose heart and ultimately lose.
This defeat put coach Hugo Broos’ team under great pressure. If they lose again to Namibia, they will definitely be eliminated from the group stage. However, history shows that South Africa have not lost to Namibia in more than a quarter of a century. This is certainly a motivation for the team to play as well as possible.
However, Namibia has just created the biggest “surprise” at the opening of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations by beating Tunisia 1-0. This is six of the last seven matches in which Namibia has been unbeaten. In the last four meetings with South Africa, Namibia won in the first round three times.
Since July last year, Namibia have gone seven games in a row without losing and kept their net clean in the first half. In contrast, South Africa were unable to score before the mid-match break in three consecutive matches.
South Africa is indeed the favorite in this match. However, they enter this tournament with a less than impressive record. Of the last nine matches, they only managed to win two matches.
On the other hand, Namibia wants to continue their positive momentum after winning three points in the opening match of this tournament. Who will win? we’ll just watch it later.
