Afcon 2021 Qualifiers: Ghana's second goal killed Bafana Bafana - Hlatshwayo

Molefi Ntseki's charges suffered a 2-0 defeat at the hands of the Black Stars in their opening match of the Afcon 2021 qualifiers away from home

Captain Thulani Hlatshwayo says Bafana Bafana knew what to expect from the Black Stars of Ghana and the threat they pose even before the game on Thursday night.

According to the South African skipper, the team was well prepared to deal with anything Ghana were going to throw at them even after they went 1-0 down in the first half.

However, Hlatshwayo conceded that the second goal, scored by Mohammed Kudus late in the second half, came as a massive blow to their chances of launching a possible comeback.
