AFCON 2019: Rohr advises South Africa on how to beat Libya after 1-1 draw with Nigeria
Super Eagles head coach, Gernot Rohr has advised South Africa on how to
defeat Libya following his side’s 1-1 draw with the Bafana Bafana in
Saturday’s 2019 Africa Cup of Nations, AFCON, qualifying fixture at the
BFN Stadium in Johannesburg.
An own goal from South Africa defender, Buhle Mkhwanazi, and a strike
from striker, Lebo Mothiba, ensured that Rohr’s men got a point against
the hosts.
Commenting on South Africa’s final group game with Libya, Rohr said for
South Africa to beat Libya they have to tackle the North Africans as
they did against the Eagles.
Rohr told SuperSport: ”It will be a big battle, in Sfax we played a very
good Libyan team. They saw already here that it is not easy to beat
them.”
The German tactician, however, believes Stuart Baxter’s side will qualify for next year’s African Cup of Nations in Cameroon.
”But I think that if South Africa played as they did today, with Percy
Tau who is a wonderful player,they are going to beat them and even a
draw will be enough.
”I think they will be with us at the next AFCON in Cameroon.”
Nigeria will face Seychelles in their final Group E game in March 2019,
while Libya, who must win to qualify for the 2019 AFCON, will host South
Africa in Sfax, Tunisia in their final game.
