Bernard
Parker, Siphiwe Tshabalala and Katlego Mashego each found the back of the net
as Bafana Bafana prevailed.
Parker
put Bafana Bafana in the lead in the 25th minute when Tshabalala sliced the CAR
defence with a brilliant pass and the striker evaded the CAR keeper before he
slotted into an empty net.
Bafana
Bafana were in the ascendency five minutes before half. Tshabalala lobbed a
ball over the CAR defence for club mate Reneilwe Letsholonyane who, with only
the keeper to beat, causally back heeled the ball to the CAR shot-stopper.
But
the pressure did not end there for CAR, they failed to clear the ball and
Tshabalala played a neat one-two with Tokelo Rantie as he busted his way into
the box and rounded off the keeper before he put the ball into the back of the
net in the 42nd minute.
In
the 48th Bafana Bafana should made it 3-0 when Parker failed to hit the back of
the net from six-yards, as his low left footed shot was saved by the CAR
‘keeper after a brilliant ball from Tshabalala on the edge of the box.
In
the 91st minute Oupa Manyisa side stepped his way on the left side before he
sent in a high cross into the box which Mashego headed into an empty net.
South
Africa trail Group A leaders Ethiopia, whom they play next weekend away, by
just two points. The Ethiopians beat Botswana 2-1 earlier on to preserve their
lead at the summit of the group.
