Soccer: Last-minute change to Bafana’s team for crucial World Cup qualifier against Rwanda

# Soccer: Bafana Bafana head coach Hugo Broos had to make a last-minute change to his team for tonight’s crucial World Cup qualifier against Rwanda in Mpumalanga’s Mbombela Stadium. Striker Lyle Foster had to withdraw from the team through injury, and was replaced by Stellenbosch FC’s Ashley Cupido. Tonight is South Africa’s last chance to qualify for next year’s tournament in Northern America after being deducted three points for fielding an illegible player, and playing to a goalless draw to Zimbabwe last week.
