STARTING LINE: Dean Furman fights for Doncaster Rovers PhotO: Getty Images

KAMOHELO Mokotjo made his debut for Dutch Eredivisie side FC Twente off the bench as they were held to a 1-1 draw at Cambuur at the weekend.

Mokotjo helped spark a second-half comeback to earn a point. The Bafana Bafana midfielder moved from PEC Zwolle last week.

He came in for praise from coach Alfred Schreuder, who said his side had better control of the game with the South African in the midfield.

Bafana striker Tokelo Rantie played the final eight minutes for English Championship side Bournemouth as they trounced Huddersfield Town 4-0 on the road.

The Cherries have been in excellent pre-season form and are genuine contenders for promotion to the Premiership this season - a campaign in which Rantie will hope to play a major role.

Kagisho Dikgacoi missed Cardiff City's 1-1 draw with Blackburn Rovers through injury but hopes to be fit in the next couple of weeks.

Dean Furman started for Doncaster Rovers as they begin life back in the English third-tier following their relegation from the Championship last season.

Rovers thumped Yeovil Town 3-0 and must be among the favourites for promotion.

Bafana left-back Kgosi Ntlhe also started for Peterborough United in League One as they won 1-0 at Rochdale Town.

Andile Jali started as KV Oostende picked up a first win of the season with a 1-0 success at Cercle Brugge in Belgium.

Jali plays a key role as the holding midfielder for the side that allows others around him to flourish and was praised again for his solid display.

Anele Ngcongca was in the Genk side that were held to a 0-0 draw by Lokeren, who were without the injured Ayanda Patosi once again.

Darren Keet was in goal for Kortrijk as they picked up a first win of the Belgian season with a 2-1 success away at Mechelen.
