Concerns for Orlando Pirates after off-form Ofori stretchered off for Ghana during Bafana Bafana defeat

South Africa moved top of Group G on Monday night after Bongokuhle Hlongwane’s 83rd minute goal earned the hosts victory over the West African giants

Richard Ofori looks doubtful for Orlando Pirates’ game against Swallows FC on Saturday after he was forced off with an injury during Ghana’s 1-0 loss to Bafana Bafana in a World Cup Group G qualifier at FNB Stadium on Monday evening.

Hlongwane’s goal was scored against reserve keeper Lawrence Ati-Zigi and not his former Maritzburg clubmate, Ofori, whose night had ended on the hour mark after being carried off injured with what appeared a groin problem.
