Bafana Bafana's double dose muthi

BAFANA Bafana may just win the 2015 Africa Cup of Nations, now that we have a white captain.

Blame it on the Sotho people for coining the saying: "Setlhare sa Mosotho ke lekgowa," meaning the whites are the cure for all black people's ills.

The only time our national soccer team won the Africa Cup of Nations was when Neil Tovey was captain.

The black captains after him just didn't do it for the team, it seems, as the only silverware our players touched since was the cutlery at the hotels they stayed in.

The 1996 winning team had a coloured goalkeeper, Andre Arendse, and now we have a white one. So we have a double dose of the white muthi to take us to the finals.
