HOW CAN BAFANA BURRY CONGO ALIVE IN THEIR KRAAL 1. Game Management It’s going to be vital for Bafana to control pace of the game in hot conditions and bumpy ground. Congo will look to lift the intensity and play at a high pace to try and hurt the visitors in the last quarter of the match. South African duo midfielders, Andile Jali and Dean Furman, will have to determine the speed in attack and defense. However, they mustn’t be afraid to take the game to Congo either 2. Thulani Serero must be fed left and right He is not be the biggest player on the park, but he is Mashabas greatest attacking lethal weapon. He is playing a starring role in the Champions League for Ajax Amstadam. Sereros silky touch, pace and football intelligence can turn a match on its head with a moment of brilliance. 3. Keep calm always Shakes troops were brilliant in shutting hostile crowd in their first match of the qualifiers against Sudan, they soaked up the pressure before scoring three second-half goals. Stade Municipal in Pointe-Noire atmosphere is going to be louder and more intimidating but Bafanas troops will have to be calm. 4. Limit the mistakes Calming down will precisely help Bafana to limit the unforced errors. Mistakes could be suicidal and can cost us the match. Playing on a different surface is already a challenge, the way the ball bounces or travels over is different than what they are used to. Defensive partners must do their basics right and thats a passport to Morocco. 5. Conversion rate must be high Bafana strikers Tokelo Rantie, Kermit Erasmus and Bongani Ndulula aren’t prolific by any stretch of the imagination, but they will have to come to the party sooner or later. Both have good attributes, with Ndulula able to hold the ball up well and Rantie and Erasmus capable of outsprinting opponents. Getting the ball in the back of the goal, though, should be their primary job. What are some basics you think they can help Shakes Win in Brazzaville?
