Afcon 2019: Baxter rings changes as Bafana Bafana go in search of win against Namibia

Bafana Bafana coach Stuart Baxter has made several changes to his starting XI from the side which lost to Ivory Coast in their 2019 Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) opener.

Bafana take on Namibia on Friday night, and after immense criticism was levelled at the mentor for his side's pragmatic style of football, Baxter has opted to bring a host of new faces into the line-up in order to register their very first win in Group D.

Baxter was also forced into one change as Dean Furman recently picked up a knee injury and was a doubt for the game.
