After a poor showing at the AFCON 2019, Bafana Bafana will look to perform better this time around. They have roped in the services of a new head coach in Molefi Ntseki. He takes over from Stuart Baxter who lead the Bafana to the quarter-final stage of the competition in June. The new coach enjoyed a debut win against Mali in the Mandel Challenge and will hope that his chargers carry that momentum to the AFCON 2021 Qualifiers in November.
