An injury has forced Bafana Bafana midfielder Patrick Maswanganyi to withdraw from the national team squad ahead of FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Lesotho and Benin.
Maswanganyi from Tembisa, Ekurhuleni, missed the Buccaneers’ 2-1 win over Mamelodi Sundowns on Sunday.
Bafana face Lesotho at the Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane on Friday and then clash with Benin in Abidjan, Ivory Coast, four days later.
Maswanganyi’s place in the Bafana squad has since been taken by midfielder Ndamulelo Maphangule from Polokwane City.
