South Africa missed out on the World Cup qualifiers playoff stage after losing 1-0 to the Black Stars at the Cape Coast Sports Stadium.
Senegalese referee Moguetta Ndiaye has been heavily criticized by South Africans and some football fans for his decision to award a penalty to the Black Stars in the first half.

“They made the Team to drive 9hrs to the Venue then gave us a fong-kong (fake) referee!! Incredible!! 4 hours to Accra on-road and 6-hour flight,” he tweeted.
