9. South Africa

A golden opportunity passed Bafana Bafana by after failing to beat Congo at home. A victory would have shuttled South Africa through to the Cup of Nations, but Shakes Mashaba’s men had a tough outing trying to break down a stubborn Congolese defence. Mashaba is a celebrated figure at the moment, as his side are top of Group A. The recipe for success seems a dogged defensive approach – South Africa is the only team yet to concede a goal in these qualifiers. To prove their worth Rantie and co. have to ensure qualification. They will then shoot up our rankings.
