African Nations Cup - South Africa 0 Burkina Faso 0

First Published: Jan 21, 2002

South Africa coach Carlos Queiroz is under mounting pressure after a poor 0-0 draw with Burkina Faso in Segou.

The South Africans were hampered by the hard-running style of Burkina Faso and harried into errors throughout.

They also lost Charlton striker and captain Shaun Bartlett with a foot injury early in the first half.

A break by Dagano in the 41st minute almost set up a winner for Burkina Faso but his fluffed pass to an unmarked Oumar Barro saw the chance wasted.
