Bafana Bafana Deliver 6 Points From Sao Tome

BAFANA Bafana completed the double over Sao Tome and Príncipe as they registered a 4-2 victory at Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium on Monday afternoon.

Sao Tome started the game on the front foot as they opened the scoring through captain Joazhifel Sousa Pontes, who won himself a free header at the near-post to steer the ball beyond Ronwen Williams in the 12th minute.

Bafana eventually began to realise they were still playing on their own turf as Bongani Zungu combined well with Dean Furman, who neatly played Thema Zwane through on goal, with the reigning PSL footballer of the season coolly slotting into the net from inside the area.

The two sides went into the half-time break at 1-1, with no changes effected at the start of the second stanza, though the ‘visitors’ started on a brighter note.

Lebogang Manyama could have handed his team the lead in the 49th
