By Niyi Busari
South Africa's Bafana Bafana head coach, Baxter Stuart has said that he will not allow his mind to stray to the results of the two matches between Nigeria and Libya, BSN Sports reports.
Bafana Bafana are on top of group E table with Seven points in three games after pummeling Seychelles 6-0 with the return leg in Seychelles on Tuesday.
Nigeria on Saturday rose from third position to second after their 4-0 impressive win over Libya in Uyo. Libya who are in third position in Group E will host Nigeria next Tuesday in Tunisia.
Baxter was asked if he would hope to see Libya Vs Nigeria result favour South Africa.

"So, I understand your question, and it would be very nice if other results going Bafana Bafana's way. But that's nothing we can control, so let's control what we can control. We will take what we can get from the second leg, then we will see what happens next from there." Baxter said.
"If Libya beat Nigeria in Tunisia, then Libya go seven points and Bafana Bafana beat Seychelles on Tuesday, we are on 10 points. That means we will need a draw each from the two remaining games.
Bafana Bafana meet Nigeria at home on November 16 and Libya away in March next year in their last two matches in AFCON 2019 qualifiers.[caption id="attachment_5417" align="alignnone" width="300"]
