Bafana Bafana to play Zimbabwe in Three Nations tournament

Bafana Bafana will play Zambia, Angola and Zimbabwe in the upcoming FIFA international week.
This was confirmed at a media breakfast this morning. SAFA are waiting for the Zambian FA to confirm the fixture details, but the matches are likely to be played at the national stadium in Lusaka.
Bafana were last in action when they took on Senegal in the 2018 World Cup qualifiers in November last year. The team has failed to qualify for the showpiece set to take place in Russia, so Baxter has to focus on preparing for the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers which resume in September.
Bafana won their opening AFCON qualifying group match against Nigeria and will need to build on that result to avoid the embarrassment of missing out on another major competition.
Baxter, meanwhile, is expected to announce his squad for the matches against Chipolopolo, the Sable Antelopes and the Warriors on Monday.
