3 July 2018 – Burger King-sponsored South African U20 Men’s National Team (Amajita) will take on Zambia in a friendly match as part of their preparations for their upcoming 2019 Africa U20 Cup of Nations third round first leg qualifier clash against Malawi.

Amajita assemble for camp on Friday, 6 July and travel to Lusaka on the same day. They will face the host nation two days later (Sunday, 8 July) at the Nkoloma Stadium – kick-off is at 15h00.

The South Africans return home on Monday, 9 July and travel to Rustenburg to continue preparation for the Malawi clash scheduled for Sunday, 15 July at the Moruleng Stadium, with a 15h00 kick-off.

Amajita got a bye in the first round of qualifiers before sauntering past Mozambique with an impressive 4-1 aggregate scoreline to reach the third and final stage of the qualifiers.
