Former Harambee Stars coach to lead Libya against Bafana Bafana
Algeria-born, Belgian-bred Adel Amrouche returns to the bench for the first time in four years on Saturday when he takes charge of Libya in their Africa Cup of Nations qualifier away to South Africa in Durban.
Appointed in May, Amrouche is back at the helm of the team after a period spent as a coaching instructor with the Belgian football association and away from the hurly-burly of the international game.
Amrouche made a solid impression in his last tenure with Kenya.
They were within minutes of beating Nigeria in the 2014 World Cup qualifiers before a controversial stoppage time equaliser for the Super Eagles.
He endeared himself even further to Kenyans when he led the Harambee Stars to the East and Central African Senior Challenge Cup with Kenya after an 11-year drought, and lost only three times in 16 games.

But an alleged spitting incident denied by Amrouche and aimed at the referee at a Nations Cup qualifier in the Comoros saw him banned for one year by the Confederation of African Football.
Amrouche has previously been the national coach in Equatorial Guinea and Burundi and taken charge of DC Motema Pembe in the Democratic Republic of Congo and USM Alger in Algeria.
