SAFFAS: Jali sees red, Singh scores

Published on

Andile Jali had a weekend to forget as he picked up a straight red card for KV Oostende, while Bongani Zungu could not get the better of Bafana Bafana teammate Keagan Dolly, MARSHALL GOUTS writes.

Bongani Zungu:

The Bafana Bafana midfielder lasted the entire ninety minutes as Amiens played to a 1-1 stalemate against Montpellier. The former Mamelodi Sundowns notched up his eighth appearance for the club, who occupy 17th position in Ligue 1 after 11 games played.

Andile Jali:

The former Orlando Pirates had a weekend to forget. After being handed a starting berth, Jali lasted 49 minutes before being given a straight red card in Oostende’s 4-2 win over Zulte-Waregem. Jali has been an ever-present figure for his side, barring one game, as they occupy 13th in the Belgian top-flight standings.

Phakamani Mahlambi:

The former Bidvest Wits could only watch his side succumb to a 1-0 defeat against Wydad Casablanca in the final of the Caf Champions League. Mahlambi was cup-tied due to his involvement in the same competition with Wits, and is yet to feature in an official match for the Egyptian giants.

Keagan Dolly:

Dolly formed part of the unused substitutes in his side’s 1-1 draw against Zungu’s Amiens. The former Sundowns man’s last appearance for the club came in September in a 1-0 victory against Troyes.

May Mahlangu:

Mahlangu lasted the entire ninety minutes in his 14th league appearance for Romanian club Dinamo Bucuresti, who made light work of Gaz Metan Medias, beating them 3-0.

Lebogang Manyama:

The reigning PSL Footballer of the Year came on as a second-half substitute for 15th placed Konyaspor, who went down 2-1 to Sivasspor. The former Cape Town City man is yet to hit the ground running in Turkey, having had only 37 minutes of action since the last Fifa international break.

Kamohelo Mokotjo:

Mokotjo came on in the final eleven minutes of the clash as Brentford extended their winning streak to eight matches with a 3-1 win against Leeds United. The Championship side occupy 12th spot on the table, with Mokotjo having racked up 11 appearances.

Dino Ndlovu:

The Bafana Bafana forward continued his fine run of form, but did not manage to find the back of the net in his side’s 2-0 victory against Kapaz . Ndlovu lasted the entire ninety minutes as his side continue to sit at the summit of the table.

Lebogang Phiri:

Phiri made a late cameo appearance as Guingamp were thrashed 6-0 by Ligue 1 champions AS Monaco. The midfielder’s previous appearance came in the 1-1 draw against Toulouse in September.

Tokelo Rantie:

Injury ruled the Orlando Pirates man out of his side’s 5-1 loss against Galatasary. The striker’s last appearance came in his team’s shock 2-1 victory against Besiktas last month.

Thulani Serero:

Serero was handed his ninth appearance of the season and played the full ninety minutes as as Vitesse drew 0-0 with PEC Zwolle to remain fifth in the Eredivisie standings – eleven points behind table-toppers, PSV.

Luther Singh:

Singh continued his rich vein of form, notching up his second goal in consecutive weeks as Sporting Braga II edged Cova Piedade 2-0. The highly-rated youngster has already netted five goals this season.
