Bafana Bafana showed character and resolve as they played to a 1-1 draw with Ivory Coast in Abidjan on Tuesday night.Hugo Broos had challenged his team to rise from their dismal performance against eSwatini at FNB Stadium on Friday.

They did so in style, frustrating an expectant crowd and making one of the favourites for the Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) next year, and the tournament hosts, look pedestrian.

In fact, the draw felt like a letdown for Bafana, who created enough chances to slaughter the Elephants only to be let down by poor finishing.

Bafana showed their intentions early into the match, taking the lead just eight minutes into this game through Themba Zwane's brilliance.
