An announcement is pending: the South Africa soccer leader reveals three FIFA deduction points

It is assumed that Teboho Mokoena Wa was suspended for the game after collecting two reservations in previous games, but played for more than 80 minutes in the game. A decision that has now proven to be expensive.

According to one of the country’s main publications, Soccer Laduma, a football house source hinted with FIFA contacts and its acceptance of the deduction of points for error, of which they regret a lot.

“We (Bafana) have to win all the points we have to play to move on, and that is all, to ensure that the team qualifies,” said a well -located source to the Siya crew, speaking under condition of anonymity.

“A mistake was made, and we cannot point the finger to people at this time what happened has happened, and we cannot return. Those points have disappeared, as difficult as it is to be accepted, but there is more to play to guarantee the qualification. An announcement is pending.”

The expected deduction will cause your points account to decrease to ten reducing its advantage of five previous points over Rwanda in second to only one, but above Lesotho, which will move to second in nine points.
