Bafana to host Benni McCarthy’s Kenya at Orlando Stadium next month
Bafana Bafana will host Kenya during their important 2027 Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) qualifier at Orlando Stadium in Soweto on November 13 at 6pm.
They will then travel to Nairobi for the second match against the Harambee Stars, who are coached by South African legend Benni McCarthy, on November 17.
Coach Pitso Mosimane’s men go into the back-to-back matches at the top of Group D after they beat Guinea 2-1 in Johannesburg and thrashed Eritrea 5-0 in Egypt to start the qualifying campaign on a positive note.
