Bafana Bafana beat Angola 2-1 in their international friendly at a wet and cold Cape Town Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Shakes Mashaba had made four changes to the side that drew 0-0 with Gambia in a 2017 Africa Cup of Nations qualifier at the weekend, with Patrick Phungwayo, Clayton Daniels, Bongani Zungu and Jabulani Shongwe coming into the side.

It seemed to pay off as the hosts dominated the early exchanges – without creating too many opportunities – but it was the visitors who would take the lead.

It came on 19 minutes courtesy of a stunning 25-yard strike from Mfutila, which leaft Itumeleng Khune with no chance as it bounced in off the underside of the bar. This after Bongani Zungu lost possession in midfield.

Thamsanqa Gabuza then missed two gilt-edged chances – first from a header and then mis-controlling with just the goalkeeper to beat after some fantastic skill by Thulani Serero.
