Khuliso Mudau of South Africa during the 2025 African Cup of Nations, Qualifier match between South Africa and Uganda at Orlando Stadium on September 06, 2024 in Johannesburg, South Africa

Former FIFA referee Victor Hlungwani believes a Bafana Bafana defender should have been sent for an early shower during the 2-2 draw against Uganda in a 2025 AFCON qualifier.

Against Uganda on Friday night, Hugo Broos' team had to come from behind to save a point.

During the opening stages of the game, Burnley FC star Lyle Foster opened the scoring before Denis Omedi and Rogers Mato put Uganda ahead in three minutes.

Hlungwani explained on SABC Sport's Soccer Zone on Monday night that Khuliso Mudau should have been sent off for violent conduct during the second half.

An act of violent conduct occurs when a player uses excessive force when not challenging for the ball.

We see Mudau 'Sailor' against the ball there. Something happens and when he stands up, he uses negligible force. He uses excessive force.

The player should have been sent off for violent conduct, but he survived [received a yellow card].

The first push was a yellow card, but the second push was a red card," said Hlungwani.
