VIDEO: SAFA boss Danny Jordaan fires 'inexperienced' GFA, insists primary teachers can't school University professors

Published on: 02 December 2021

President of the South African Football Association, Danny Jordaan has once again bitten the Ghana Football Association, describing them as immature to understand the game. 

This comes following the back and forth between the two countries after the final group G World Cup qualifier in Cape Coast was shrouded in controversy. The Black Stars defeated Bafana Bafana 1-0 after referee Ndiaye Maguette awarded Ghana a penalty.

SAFA were unhappy with the decision and have reported the referee to FIFA as a review into the game is currently underway.

In an interview with South Africa journalist Robert Marawa, Danny Jordaan fired back again, insisting a one-year-old GFA cannot teach them the rules of the game.

“You cannot be schooled by a primary school teacher when you are a university professor. We have organized a World Cup. It was voted the best ever World Cup on the African continent. We cannot be schooled by people who are just in their first year in administration and so we kept quiet," he said.

FIFA is yet to announce it's decision on the game, but the Black Stars look set for the play-offs next year.

The draw for the final round of qualifiers is expected early next year.
