Sundowns defender Rivaldo Coetzee's Afcon snub disappoints Roger De Sa

Former Ajax Cape Town coach Roger De Sa has revealed his shock as defender Rivaldo Coetzee missed out on an opportunity to play for Bafana Bafana at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations finals.

Although he is not fully aware of all the details, De Sa says there should be something serious happening in the defender’s life because he is an ambitious young man and would not let such an opportunity pass him.

“Look, I only read in the media about it and I am not too sure of the details. He’s a young boy from Kakamas which is a small town in the Northern Cape and he has been away from family because of football,” De Sa told Goal.
