I haven’t spoken to him – Lesotho FA denies contacting NFF concerning South African ineligible player

The Lesotho Football Association chief has denied any meeting with the NFF regarding South Africa fielding an ineligible player.

South Africa’s 2-0 victory over Lesotho last Friday is under scrutiny following a request from the Lesotho Football Association and the NFF to FIFA. They are investigating the possibility that South Africa fielded an ineligible player, Teboho Mokoena, during the match. 

The Association questioned Teboho Mokoena’s eligibility to play against Lesotho, given his yellow cards in previous matches.
