Long gone are the days when South Africa's elite were playing in the Premier League, but that hasn't stopped Blackburn Rovers from reminiscing on the days when Benni McCarthy and Aaron Mokoena were on their books. Did you see their tributes?
The English side commenced their FA Cup campaign on Saturday against Barnet, and in order to build up to the game, they took a walk down memory lane.
Two of their memories were that of Bafana Bafana legend and Cape Town City coach Benni McCarthy's goal against Arsenal 10 years ago, with the second being a pile driver from Aaron Mokena.
Check it out!

It's great to see clubs remember some of the great work Mzansi's produced for them, and long may it continue.
Do you remember any of these goals scored by McCarthy and Mokoena for Blackburn?
