Coronavirus: Dr Ngwenya reveals three 'return-to-play' protocol priorities set by Safa and PSL

South African Football Association (Safa) chief medical officer and Bafana Bafana doctor Thulani Ngwenya is confident there are no issues with the PSL return-to-play protocol.

Ngwenya explained how the Joint Liaison Committee (JLC) submission to the government eventually gave the PSL the green light to resume and complete the season.

"We have said to the government, we're going to test first, the training fields are going to be sanitised and people are going to be screened on a daily basis – that is just for training," Dr Ngwenya said to the South African Football Journalists' Association.
