Nigeria vs South Africa – LIVE!
The Super Eagles and Bafana Bafana head in to a huge semi-final at the Africa Cup of Nations in the first of today’s two fixtures. Neither side has conceded in the knockout stages of this year’s competition, so something has got to give. And, if it doesn’t, will South Africa goalkeeper Ronwen Williams put on another shoot-out show?
Three-time AFCON winners Nigeria are the bookies’ favourite but South Africa have a point to prove. Their single championship crown, from 1996, was won in a year when the Nigerian team, the holders at the time, withdrew from the competition. Besting the Super Eagles to reach the final would feel like history calling for South Africa.
