South Africa vs Namibia: Live stream, TV channel, kick-off time & where to watch

South Africa will look to bounce back from their early defeat in the AFCON 2023 as they face Namibia who enter the contest on the back of a victory in their opening encounter.

South Africa were outclassed by Mali in their inaugural AFCON 2023 match as they conceded two goals in the span of six minutes. Bafana Bafana will now be looking to transform their fortunes against Namibia otherwise they could be dumped out of the continental competition.

Namibia, on the other hand, defeated Tunisia in an intriguing contest as Deon Hotto scored a crucial goal in the dying minutes of the game. Another victory over South Africa would see the Brave Warriors earn a Round of 16 spot.
