Zungu: Scottish FA hands Bafana Bafana star six-match ban for breaching Covid-19 protocols

South Africa international Bongani Zungu is among the five Rangers FC players that have been slapped with a ban for breaking coronavirus protocol.

Midfielder Zungu, striker Dapo Mebude, goalkeeper Brian Kinnear, defenders Nathan Patterson and Calvin Bassey have all been banned for six matches by the Scottish Football Association.

The quintet broke Covid-19 rules by attending a party in Scotland last month and Zungu, Patterson and Bassey were then told to stop training with the team following the protocol breach.

The trio then apologised to the Rangers fans on their return to training under manager Steven Gerrard last month.
