Sam and Foster headline Notoane's squad for SA U23 Afcon qualifier against Zimbabwe

Head coach of the South African Olympic Team, David Notoane, has named a strong 25-man squad to face Zimbabwe in the third and final round of the 2019 U23 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.

South Africa and Zimbabwe face off in the first leg on Thursday, 5 September at Milpark Stadium in Johannesburg. Kickoff is at 19h00.

The third and final round qualifiers have been rescheduled from June to September as they were too close to the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations, which took place in June.

Notoane has kept the bulk of the team which defeated Angola 6-1 on aggregate in the last round in March this year – calling up seven overseas-based players from Latvia, Portugal, England, France and Denmark.
