Horrible goal keeping culprit cost the Young Warriors
South Africa Under 23 team capitalised from goalkeeping blunders by Dynamos' Tatenda Mukuruva to extinguish Young Warriors' dream of making a maiden appearance at the Rio 2016 Olympic Games.
Young Warriors' goalkeepers' coach Tembo Chuma said Mukuruva's blunders were caused by the floodlights, which blurred his vision.
South Africa won courtesy of a double by Keegan Dolly and Gift Motupa who gave the home side a healthy 4-1 aggregate score having drawn the first leg 1-1 in Harare.
Dolly gave South Africa an ideal start when he scored in the opening minutes of the game with an angled effort, a replica of his goal at Rufaro two weeks ago.
In the eighth minute the Dynamos goalie spilled the ball onto the path of Gift Motupa, who stabbed it into the nets.
Dolly completed his brace on the stroke of fulltime through a free kick that slipped under Mukuruva's body.
