Match Recap
South Africa didn't just win in Asmara, they ran riot. Relebohile Mofokeng struck twice before half-time, in the 19th and again in first-half stoppage time, and by the time Sphephelo Sithole added a third early in the second half the contest was already a formality. Iqraam Rayners made it four on the hour mark, and Luther Singh capped the rout deep into stoppage time to make it 0-5, a genuine goal fest in this Africa Cup of Nations qualifier. The result tells its own story on the table too: Bafana Bafana move top with three points and a win from their opening game, while Eritrea sit second but winless, their draw leaving them searching for answers after such a one-sided demolition. Mofokeng was the standout, his brace setting the tone South Africa never let up on, even if the goals kept coming from elsewhere. Five goals, four different scorers, and a statement result to open their qualifying campaign, there's no better way to see how this rout unfolded than watching Mofokeng's opener and Singh's late finisher in the highlights below.
