Swaziland  upset the Fifa world rankings on Monday with surprise Cosafa Cup match-day 2 victory in South African mining town Rustenburg.

The Swazis made light of being 69 places below Tanzania by winning 1-0 in Group B through a Sifiso Mabila goal at the Royal Bafokeng Sports Palace.

Group B favourites Tanzania pressed forward early on against Swaziland without converting several half-chances.

The Swazis gradually settled with veteran skipper Tony Tsabedze industrious in midfield and they went ahead on 43 minutes.

Patience proved vital as an isolated attacker retained possession and when support arrived, the ball was swept across the pitch to overlapping Mabila.

The fullback burst into the penalty area and unleashed a powerful low drive that flew across goalkeeper Deogratias Munish and into the net.

Tanzania disappointed after halftime and the poverty of attempts to level was illustrated 13 minutes from time when a complex free-kick manoeuvre ended with the ball trickling wide nearer the corner flag than the goal.
