05 Sep 2015

That's it! It's all over in Nouakchott and Bafana go down 3-1!

05 Sep 2015

93' And the broadcasters lose pictures...just as well.

Not many, if any, for Bafana Bafana and their fans!

05 Sep 2015

92' Ball goes out and just as well as a Mauritania defender goes down after falling awkwardly going up for a header...

05 Sep 2015

91' Khune rushes out to clear, gosh - almost another goal there...

05 Sep 2015

We're into injury time now, just three minutes more of this pain to follow...

05 Sep 2015

Shakes Mashaba will certainly not be breaking the record for most wins as a SA coach today...

Shocking display - SA's worst since he took over from Gordon Igesund...

05 Sep 2015

Wonderful solo effort but the defending from both Coetzee and Mathoho was again nothing short of woeful!

Bafana losing 3-1...

05 Sep 2015

86' GOAL! GAME OVER!

05 Sep 2015

85' Khune saves!

Scoreboard almost getting messy!

05 Sep 2015

83' Home crowd in good spirits as another SA long ball goes out to into touch...

Clock ticking away...

05 Sep 2015

Easily cleared...Mauritania break but Mathoho steals the ball off the attacker!

05 Sep 2015

80' Free kick to SA in a good position...

05 Sep 2015

Shocking defending from Mathoho, totally outfoxed there and Mashaba also failed to spot the danger...

Khune easily beaten!

Bafana trail again...

05 Sep 2015

77' GOAL! Mauritania lead again...

05 Sep 2015

76' Mashaba defends well and wins the foul.

Good work on a rare Mauritania attack!

05 Sep 2015

75' Gabuza keeping the linesman busy - two offside calls in two minutes...

05 Sep 2015

72' Better from Zungu there!

He plays the ball wide and Gabuza's cross is hastily cleared!

05 Sep 2015

20 minutes left, Mauritania in trouble now despite their numerical advantage!

They look afraid to attack it seems...

05 Sep 2015

Ngcongca with the cross floated in (his first good one) and Gabuza powers his header home after the keeper came to collect but was beaten to the ball!

Great header that was!

05 Sep 2015

GABUZA you beauty!

05 Sep 2015

68' GOAL!

05 Sep 2015

Gabuza's cross is fired into the box, it beats everyone and falls to Zungu - he hits it first time but his shot is well over the bar!

He lacked composure there!

05 Sep 2015

64' Glorious chance but Zungu's wastes it!

05 Sep 2015

Substitution: Zungu for Furman...can this spark life into the Bafana midfield?

05 Sep 2015

62' Home crowd is making their presence felt!

Cheering every clearance like a goal!

05 Sep 2015

61' The midfield is just too static...

No runs made by anyone as Furman and Jali struggle to get the team going...

05 Sep 2015

59' Getting really bad now as Thulani Serero is getting a yellow card for dissent, the ref didn't like his antics and appropriately cautioned!

05 Sep 2015

57' Khune now giving the ballboy a talking too - it's a bit of a dogshow out there!

05 Sep 2015

56' Awful pass from Jali - straight out of play...

Bafana need a major wake up call (you'd think the sending off would've woken them up?!)

05 Sep 2015

55' Mashaba has come on to fill Zulu's spot with Rantie sacrificed...

05 Sep 2015

50' Mauritania with the free kick just outside the box...

05 Sep 2015

He's off - Zulu sent off on debut!

Bad ------> Worse!

05 Sep 2015

Zulu might be seeing red...

He brought down a player, and as the last man on goal...

05 Sep 2015

Big trouble now!

05 Sep 2015

STAT ATTACK

22 - The most number of wins by a SA coach.

Currently tied between Shakes Mashaba and Clive Barker.

05 Sep 2015

The Bafana Bafana players have not adapted to this field...passing at pace with the bumps makes the first touch hard to control!

Zulu the latest player unable to keep possession...

05 Sep 2015

46' Jali fires off an aimless long ball...could be a long half at this rate

05 Sep 2015

Here we go! 45 minutes left!

05 Sep 2015

The second 45 minute is almost upon us, can Bafana Bafana score for a fifth consecutive game away from home?

05 Sep 2015

Half time and it's the hosts that lead 1-0.

The crowd cheer their players off loudly!

05 Sep 2015

Two minutes of time added on in the first half

05 Sep 2015

Seconds before the half time break and Mauritania not too keen to get forward when they have the ball...
