The Premier Soccer League (PSL) has continued to get some rave reviews and admiration from top coaches and officials at this 2023 African Cup of Nations (AFCON) tournament, currently underway in Côte d’Ivoire.
Bafana Bafana go into their 2023 Africa Cup of Nations semi-final against Nigeria as distinct underdogs but with plenty of belief after a fairytale tournament run so far.
Former Cameroon goalkeeper Joseph-Antoine Bell says this could very well be the best AFCON tournament he has witnessed.
Bafana Bafana assistant coach Helman Mkhalele has recalled the tough conditions that surrounded their 2-0 loss to Nigeria in the 2000 Africa Cup of Nations semi-final in Lagos.
In his press conference after Nigeria sealed their spot in the AFCON semifinals, coach Jose Peseiro felt vindicated in his initial assessment that friendly matches were not a true reflection of The Super Eagles.
To many, Nigeria appeared to pass their test against Angola in the quarterfinals with flying colours to book a ticket to the last four of the AFCON.
