Mali’s African Nations Championship campaign has come to an abrupt end after going down 2-1 to a fired-up Zimbabwe in the quarterfinals in Cape Town.

The Warriors have edged out Burkina Faso 1-0 at the African Nations Championship to secure a spot in the quarterfinals.

Following Bafana Bafana’s loss to Nigeria at the African Nations Championship, Sports Minister Fikile Mbalula has called their performance "useless".

Bafana Bafana have been dealt a blow with the news that goalkeeper Itumeleng Khune will be kept out of Nigeria’s deciding Chan match against them.

South Africa’s national team has a real chance of winning Chan 2014, but they must first overcome the Nigeria jinx.
