David Nyathi: Bafana Bafana must prepare well for the 2019 Afcon finals

Former Bafana Bafana defender David Nyathi believes coach Stuart Baxter squad needs to be congratulated following their qualification to the 2019 Caf African Cup of Nations tournament.

Bafana defeated Libya 2-1 on Sunday in Tunisia and they will now form part of the continental showpiece, and Nyathi says goalkeeper Darren Keet was outstanding in the game.

“I think first and foremost we needed a draw, but fortunately we went on to win it and I think Libya were very good and the game was tense, they opened gaps and it was very stressful for us,” Nyathi told Goal.
