Teboho Mokoena (Yellow Card 54 mins ) vs Benin- Match Day 1 Teboho Mokoena ( Yellow Card 52nd minute ) vs Zimbabwe -Match day 4 He should have been suspended for their game vs Lesotho, but he played. If confirmed, South Africa will be deducted 3 points. Let NFF and CAF/FIFA know as this could be to the benefit of the Super Eagles

Check o Were the two matches world cup qualifiers? Or one of them world cup qualifiers and the other nations cup qualifiers? In football, accumulating two yellow cards in separate matches within the same competition leads to a one-match suspension for the next scheduled game |

Whether the CAF president is a South African who gives a hoot... South African must be penalized and 3 points deducted... All the Super Eagles need to do is win all our remaining matches. Food don set. Time to tag FIFA, NFA, CAF, Solace Chukwu, Ptw Doherty D- Pathway Sports, Mowiz, Top Sports Journalists all over the world. Nigerians, let's do this on X, Facebook, Instagram, Tiktok etc |

It's possible he served the suspension during an AFCON qualifier match. Maybe that's what happened |
| Re: World Cup Qualifiers: Did South Africa Field An Ineligible Player Vs Lesotho? by Nobody: 8:20am On Mar 25, 2025 |
WhiteIverson:No he didn't. He has been playing all their matches. |

WhiteIverson:You can't get suspended in WC qualifiers & serve the suspension in AFCON. |

Yellow cards confirmed from FIFA official match reports of the matches South Africa vs Benin https://www.fifa.com/fifaplus/en/match-centre/match/520/288282/288289/400017588 South Africa vs Zimbabwe https://www.fifa.com/en/match-centre/match/520/288282/288289/400018179 Seems this case has merit ..... |

Car321:I think it must be yellow card in 2 consecutive matches. Match Day 1 and Match Day 4 are not consecutive matches. Be prepared to play and win on the field of play. No back door points to qualify for the WC. If you are knocked out of the qualifiers, you come sit at home and watch others play. The WC is nobody's birth right! |

South Africa should get deducted 3 points and 3 goals while Lesotho should be awarded the 3 points with 3 goals. |

mikeapollo:It doesn’t have to be consecutive. |
