SuperSport’s Never-ending Season Continues with AFCON Qualifiers

Sport | 8 years ago

It may officially be the off-season, but football continues on the World of Champions with nine 2017 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.

With the Gabon 2017 qualifiers two matches from being concluded, it’s now a matter of win or bust for former champions South Africa and Zambia. In the same predicament are Botswana, Angola and Mauritius.

All five nations lie in third place in their respective groups and must win this weekend to keep alive the faint hopes of progressing to the finals as the two best overall runners-up.

The countdown to Euro 2016 also continues on SuperSport with high profile warm-up matches featuring a Germany in need of regaining winning momentum ahead of the June 10 – July 10 spectacle.

Broadcast details includes the Botswana match against Uganda on SS4HD, SS4 and SS9E. While Guinea-Bissau and Zambia would be shown on SS9 just as Gambia’s tie against South Africa will come up on SS4HD and Côte D Ivoire will tackle Gabon with all the matches coming up tomorrow.
