Zimbabwe 0-0 South Africa: Bafana Bafana Frustrated in Durban
South Africa's hopes of qualifying for the 2026 World Cup took a hit as they were held to a 0-0 draw by Zimbabwe at the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban.
Bafana Bafana had been favorites to qualify automatically from Group C, but a three-point deduction by FIFA for fielding a suspended player in March set them back.
They needed to beat Zimbabwe and Rwanda to keep pressure on, but with other results not in their favor, Hugo Broos' side is now in second place with one game left.
