How can the Teboho Mokoena case be solved by FIFA laws!
Before the match against Lesotho, Teboho Mokoena for playing Mamelodi Sundowns and Bafana Bafana received two yellow cards in two matches of the same qualifiers, the previous two matches were on November 18, 2023 during Bafana Bafana's victory over Benin with a score of 2-1, and on June 11, 2024 with Bafana Bafana's victory over Zimbabwe with a score of 3-1, in these two consecutive matches the players received a yellow card and Lesotho are not supposed to participate in the recent victory of South Africa by two goals to nothing, the beginning of the March qualifiers.
What does the FIFA law say!
"As for the FIFA disciplinary decision, if a player gets two yellow balls in two different matches of the same competition, the player must be suspended in the next match," and with this decision, the Mamelodi Sun Downs player should have been suspended.
It is still uncertain whether Leyva took action by himself without filing a claim by FIFA, noting that the player was excluded from the Benigni match, in which the team recently won with a score of 2-0, for lack of a final decision on his case, and the fans of Bafana hope that this thing will not affect their career in the qualifiers for the upcoming World Cup.
