Boniface Makolo: Referees' Target Or Monster Of The Game?

However, the Township Rollers' player has had trouble with referees because of his robust tackles, raising questions whether he should don national colours.

In the 2008 Olympic Games' qualifiers, Makolo has not finished a single game because of disciplinary reasons. His record is two red cards in two games in the qualifiers. After being sent off in the opening game against Morocco in Rabat, Makolo once again took an early shower against Guinea on September 7. The Morocco red card means he automatically missed the Cameroon game at the National Stadium last month. He will suffer the same fate again when the Young Zebras meet Guinea in Gaborone in the return leg.
