The Zebras scrapped through to the second round of the Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers when they narrowly beat visiting Burundi 1-0 at the New Lobatse Stadium yesterday.

Captain Joel Mogorosi, who was a lone figure upfront all afternoon, scored the solitary goal early in the second half. Zebras coach Peter James Butler played Mogorosi upfront instead of his usual wing position and also took a gamble by fielding an unfit Mogakolodi Ngele.

Butler also threw in rookie Lebogang Ditsile ahead of Jackie Mothatego. Play was balanced in the early stages of the match with the visitors trying their luck upfront.
