00:00Knowing that is not only about football, the culture, the reverie and everything is important in this game.
00:06Absolutely, so much at stake. You dare not blink because also...
00:12I have to play a different strategy about this game because you have really packed the midfield with ball winning midfielders, very aggressive.
00:19For quite a time and they do a lot of interposition changes, leaving Sitolo to sit.
00:24Very well. There we go. We are underway then. It's match day three.
00:30Group B of the Total Energies.
00:32Africa Cup of Nations, Zimbabwe in the Yellow Strip.
00:38All yellow this evening while South Africa attacking the goals to your right in all green.
00:46It will certainly be out to prove a point.
00:50I think even that result out in German when they face each other in that World Cup qualifier still stings.
00:56Even though South Africa did go on to secure qualification for the World Cup.
01:03It was still a match that very nearly derailed Fana Pafana's chances of advancing to next year's World Cup in North America.
01:13Apollos brings in Buzumgao, Zimbabwe.
01:21And very difficult place to get to. There is no real public terms with no buses and that sort of thing.
01:27So you have to catch a taxi to get out here. The shot comes in!
01:32Did Arubi keep that out? He did indeed.
01:35Snapshot today. Just in the day of the diving of Washington Arubi.
01:42That was a beautiful cutback. Apollos got the ball. He did whatever he could.
01:47South Africa should be relaxed like this. Keep your composure. Keep playing like this. And they will get the spaces.
01:54Now, Cancia Moremi took a deflection! And it's gone in! Vicious deflection! And Tepo Moremi will want to claim it.
02:10But as we saw a defensive goal last night was given as an own goal. So we'll see how that one is noted down.
02:20But the important thing is South Africa break the deadlock. And he's taking just over six minutes.
02:26Horrendous luck for the goalkeeper. Not much he could do about that.
02:30Absolutely not much he could do about that. As I already said, South Africa were patience.
02:35They were possessing the ball. It was a beautiful combination to Foster who wanted to shoot.
02:39But he thought Moremi was in a good position. He gave him the ball.
02:42He wanted to put the ball in the corner of the side. But unfortunately deflected. And it was a beautiful goal. Great goal.
02:49Let it go. Let it go. Let it go. Let it go.
02:54This is Fabish. And now stepping in here. This could be dangerous. Great run! And what a goal! Oh, wow! What a...
03:05What a strike! Dance past his marker. Tawanda washing his...
03:12Draws the Warriors level!
03:17I mean, what can you say about this? Absolutely brilliant. In games like this, you need one individual brilliant. Absolutely brilliant.
03:25He was able to go past his markers. And shot... A couple shots to the right side of...
03:32Runway Williams. Absolutely cannot do anything about this goal. What a goal! A beautiful finish.
03:38A goal out of nothing. A moment of magic. Maswanese saw it open up in front of him.
03:44And the Motherwell man smacks it past... Runway Williams.
03:49Could be the left of...
03:53Lunga or the right boot of Fabish.
03:57Wow!
03:58Lunga.
03:59Kanananga in a southern African country on Match Day 3.
04:03It was against Namibia back in 1998 when Penny McCarthy scored all four goals in a 4-1 win over Namibia.
04:13We are back underway here.
04:15Combines again with his club teammate Obre mudiba.
04:19I mean, Bondeva should have been very calm.
04:32When a team is doing a low block, you don't try to find penetration passes
04:36because they have blocked their method.
04:37You need to go on the flanks and use 1v1 on their wings
04:40because you have players who have speed and can outsmart the defenders.
04:49By the way, keeping tabs, of course, on the other match,
04:52underwent Grippi and Agadir.
04:56It is still nil-nil.
04:59And goal line in Egypt locked at nil-nil.
05:04That is out.
05:05Well, of course, Egypt already threw at the other end.
05:08And Lyle Foster has barged his way to goal.
05:12Wow.
05:13You always take your life into your hands when you're allowed to,
05:17the ball to bounce like that in the defensive area.
05:19Lyle Foster credit him for keeping up and not giving up on the effort.
05:27Divine Lunga culpable now maybe in both goals.
05:30But what a lackadaisical approach from the goalkeeper.
05:35That was absolutely unnecessary.
05:37He should have come out with full force.
05:39He should have been very committed.
05:41And any time goalkeepers come out, strikers are a bit afraid.
05:44But listen, Foster have done a great job.
05:46He wasn't afraid.
05:47He was committed that the goalkeeper were going to make such a blunder.
05:50He went to full force and he get the head up.
05:52Beautiful goal.
05:54Looks like he may have taken a bang to the head.
05:56Lyle Foster has called for the medical team.
06:00Have a look at this.
06:01Well, it's a mistake by...
06:03And was released at the end of it, no period, and then sold when he got to another pirate.
06:11He has been cooking up a storm.
06:16Obrimutiba to Apollos.
06:19Foster with his back to go.
06:20Apollos!
06:21Snapshot and this time with the ball.
06:29Now could be a chance here.
06:32A little cutback.
06:33Martin Gensar now.
06:34Interfeasal and a shot.
06:36Oh!
06:36Off the upright.
06:37Oh!
06:37So close to an equalizer.
06:43Desperately close to an equalizer.
06:45But now they could get hit at the other end.
06:47Lyle Foster, look at it.
06:50Who's kept that run going into a...
06:52It was offside.
06:53It was offside.
06:54Johnson, Modau have to be a bit defensive now because I think he's messing up a bit of less now.
07:03Aoubas.
07:06To Moremi.
07:08Tepam Moremi!
07:10Just pulls it wide.
07:1425 minutes.
07:15It's 10 to 25 minutes remaining.
07:21South Africa on course for a rare match day three win.
07:25Oswin Apollos.
07:28Teeing up Sipambule.
07:30Safe from Arubi.
07:32Side, he shoots.
07:33This is the second time he's getting shot on target and was...
07:43Shot again.
07:45Testing Arubi.
07:46There's not much power behind that one from...
07:53Lunga.
07:54It's done well, Lunga.
07:56Cherewa.
07:57That's a great ball from Cherewa.
07:59Could be a chance here!
08:00Wonderful!
08:01It's an old goal!
08:03Oh my goodness!
08:04High drama!
08:05At the grandstand of Marrakesh!
08:07Masanise!
08:08Involved in another...
08:09Absolutely clever pass!
08:10Absolutely clever pass!
08:11Absolutely...
08:12The goalkeeper opened himself very well save the world but unfortunately hit Mobisa.
08:16Mokor is here to hit first to break any tie as the ball that goes across the shorts!
08:29And they're appealing for handball.
08:31And they're appealing for handball.
08:33There's Mohan Kota who are appealing for handball.
08:38And not just Mohan Kota, there will be a look no doubt from...
08:41That was turned down.
08:43Controversially yes!
08:44He's gonna go have a look!
08:46At first I told you it got to the head before the hand.
08:50But after the reverse I think it hit the hand.
08:53My goodness!
08:54My goodness!
08:55What drama!
08:56The grandstand Marrakesh!
09:00Producing grand drama here!
09:03No doubt about it!
09:05No doubt about it!
09:10But I thought maybe he was afraid that one was going in.
09:13And had to take some kind of action.
09:18The referee is going to point to the spot.
09:20He didn't even have a second look at it.
09:22Penalty!
09:29And after fighting their way back in to the game.
09:34My word!
09:36What?
09:38Let's see what Apollos can do.
09:44This to put South Africa back in front for a second time in the game.
09:49For a third time in the game.
09:52They're ahead.
09:53Beautifully done.
09:54Oswin Apollos.

09:59For a third time.
10:00For a third time.
10:01It's a third time lucky now.
10:02Ugo Bruce has aged I'm sure.
10:04Still Zimbabwe in possession.
