Shalulile breaks scoring duck in World Cup qualifiers

Namibia 1-1 Equatorial Guinea

Namibia were denied back-to-back wins in the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers after a 1-1 draw against Equatorial Guinea.

Mamelodi Sundowns striker Peter Shalulile got the game's opening goal for the Brave Warriors six minutes after the halftime break.

As a result, Shalulile ended his 12-game goal drought for the national team, which dates back to March 2023.

However, the visitors were back on level terms four minutes after Shalulile's opener, with  Saul Coco firing past goalkeeper Edward Maova.

The Black Stars came into the clash on a high after thrashing Chad 5-0 on Friday evening.

The visitors took the lead in the 11th minute when Thomas Partey powered home a cross from Jordan Ayew.

The second goal arrived eight minutes after the halftime break, with Partey completing his brace on the night with another off an Ayew cross.

Mohammed Kudus got his name on the score-sheet just before the hour mark after running onto a through-ball from Ayew before firing home from six yards.

Cote d'Ivoire 1-0 Gambia

The win sees the Elephants reclaim top spot in Group F, while Gambia find themselves in fifth spot.
