Bafana Bafana winger Elias Mokwana had a standout moment in his CAF Champions League debut for ES Tunis, playing a key role in his team’s dominant 4-0 victory over Djoliba. At 25 years old, Mokwana has made nine appearances for his new club but has often played a smaller role. However, Tuesday’s match gave him the opportunity to shine, as he scored the second goal and provided an assist for the third.
His performance earned him the Man of the Match accolade, with a Sofascore rating of 8.4, marking a memorable milestone in his Champions League journey. Despite the commanding win, ES Tunis currently sits in second place in Group D, as Pyramids secured a 5-1 victory over Sagrada Esperanca in the other group match.
Meanwhile, in Group C, Percy Tau made a brief appearance off the bench in Al Ahly’s 4-2 win over Stade d’Abidjan but had limited impact on the match. Al Ahly leads the group, edging out Orlando Pirates on goal difference. The Pirates triumphed 2-1 against Khanyisa Mayo’s CR Belouizdad, with Mayo scoring his first goal for the club.
