As Bafana Bafana prepares to face Nigeria in the AFCON semi-final with a spot in the final at stake, anticipation is high.
Here’s a breakdown of the potential scenarios and key factors that could shape the outcome of this crucial match.
Nigeria’s Threats:
Nigeria, having triumphed over Angola in a tightly contested quarter-final, possesses several formidable players. Ademola Lookman, the goal-scorer in the last match, has been instrumental.
Samuel Chukwueze, known for his directness and pace, poses a challenge for Aubrey Modiba. However, talismanic striker Victor Osimhen, a crucial asset, faces uncertainty due to an abdominal strain.
Goalkeeper Showdown:
The battle between goalkeepers Ronwen Williams and Stanley Nwabili could be decisive. Williams made history with penalty-shootout heroics against Cape Verde, while Nwabili, of Chippa United, boasts four clean sheets in the tournament.

The Super Eagles have been defensively resilient, conceding only once in the tournament’s opening day. With both keepers in top form, a single goal may prove pivotal.
Prediction:
Considering the stature and form of the goalkeepers and defensive units, a low-scoring affair is likely. The match might extend to extra time and penalties, making it a tense and closely contested encounter.
