Bafana Bafana on the brink of qualification for the 2026 FIFA World Cup but stiff Nigeria test lies in wait | Goal.com South Africa | SA News

9 September 2025 by Guest

South Africa are within touching distance of the 2026 FIFA World Cup, but an acid test awaits them as they prepare to face Nigeria.

Hugo Broos’ men made it four wins in a row as they beat neighbours Lesotho 3-0 at the Free State Stadium on Friday, courtesy of goals from Mohau Nkota, Lyle Foster and Oswin Appollis.  

Bafana opened up a five-point gap to Benin at the top of the group, although the threat of being docked points still looms after they fielded Teboho Mokoena in the reverse fixture against the Crocodiles. 

Lesotho had threatened to protest if Bafana fielded Mokoena, who had been banned for the reverse fixture, but was available for this particular match.

Broos, the South…

    A baby was born in South Africa. The village was very poor, and the makeshift hospital didn\’t have some necessary equipment.. such as scales.

    The father however, was desperate to know the newborn baby\’s weight. After quite a bit of asking around, the hospital\’s chairman came up with an idea.

    \”Five miles west, there\’s a butcher shop. The owner deals with meat, he should have a rather precise scale. You could just put your baby on the meat scale, and the weight reading you\’ll get should be pretty accurate.\”

    And so the father departed westward. After much walking, with his newborn child cardled safely in his arms, he finally arrived at the butcher shop. He explained his dilemma to the shop owner, to witch the latter replied:

    \”Don\’t worry, friend. It\’s not even a problem, I\’ll check it for you, free of charge.\” And so he took the child to the back, where the scale was located.

    The father heard rumbling noises, and some scraping.. About a minute later the butcher came back.

    \”About three pounds boneless\” He said.
