Uganda Vs South Africa: What The Clash Means To Both Teams

Uganda and South Africa could be playing for pride when they face off at the Mandela National Stadium, Namboole on Friday November 15. The two nations are on the brink of qualifying for the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations.

They are both from Group K with Uganda currently leading with 10 points, two points ahead of Bafana Bafana. Congo follows in third place with 4 points while South Sudan are already eliminated as they have no points at this stage.

The Red Devils visit the Bright Stars on Thursday, November 14. This fixture will determine whether Uganda – South Africa clash holds any importance in terms of determining who qualifies.

Congo must beat South Sudan in Juba to remain with a chance of going into the final game with an opportunity. Such a result will mean Uganda and South Africa have all to play for.

However, defeat or draw for Congo in Juba means both Uganda and South Africa will go into the Friday clash already qualified and thus play for pride. In this case, The Cranes on 10 points will have an unassailable lead over the Congolese.

It can afford to lose to Bafana Bafana and Congo but still qualify. The same can be said for South Africa who have a better head-to-head versus the Central African nation.

It should be noted that both Uganda and South Africa have been doing well in their recent matches. This Friday game will therefore be a true test of who plays better.
