Onesimo Bhasera earns red card

for a second bookable offence when his side met with Bradford City in a league match at Coral Windows Stadium.
The match ended 1-1 with the home side, Bradford City, getting their equaliser four minutes before time after Scottish international Craig Sutherland had given the visitors a 59th minute lead.
The former Kaizer Chiefs defender was given his marching orders by referee Brendan Malone a minute into injury time when he received his second yellow card, having been shown a yellow barely 23 minutes into the game.
Bhasera was the only player on the day from both teams to be carded.

In Germany, Zimbabwe Warriors hitman Knowledge Musona continues to struggle for his Bundesliga side Hoffenheim where he was again left out of the squad that faced Nuremberg in a league match over the weekend.
His side though won 0-2 away from home.
It is the non game time being experienced by Zimbabwe’s most lethal striker that might be a cause for concern for head coach Norman Mapeza, especially when the qualifiers for 2013 Nations Cup set for South Africa will be beginning early next year.
The former Kaizer Chiefs striker has played just 145 minutes out of a possible 1 440 minutes and will need to put extra effort so as to avoid being rusty for the national team job.
