Kenya hold Bafana to a draw

Mosimane's winning start to his second tenure in charge of Bafana Bafana has come to an end.

Bafana Bafana were compelled to a 2-2 draw against Kenya in their Africa Cup of Nations qualifier at the Orlando Amstel Arena. Ronwen Williams received a rating of 5/10, indicating he wasn't at his best, particularly regarding the penalty. Thabang Matuludi also scored a 5/10, praised for his positive approach but criticized for his inability to finish in promising situations.

Ime Okon, who conceded a penalty leading to Kenya's equalizer, received a 5/10. Olwethu Makhanya and Aubrey Modiba each got a 6/10 for their performances, Makhanya for a solid defensive game and Modiba for his forward runs. Sphephelo Sithole received a 6/10 for his comfortable outing, enjoying most of the possession. Teboho Mokoena, who usually performs at a higher standard, scored a 6/10 due to his limited impact in the final third.

Relebohile Mofokeng, the Belgian-based attacker, was South Africa's standout player with an 8/10 rating as he scored a goal and nearly scored a second. Oswin Appollis and Iqraam Rayners each received a 7/10, the former for his impressive performance and the latter for his contributions until his substitution. Tshepang Moremi and Lyle Foster each got a 5/10, Moremi for his underwhelming outing and Foster for providing the necessary bite to the team up front after Mofokeng's goal.

Puso Dithejane received a 5/10 for his minimal impact after coming off the bench, while Tashreeq Matthews and Cassius Mailula came on too late to be rated.
