RAS DUMISANI. SA VS FRANCE (2009)
In 2009, Dumisani went viral after singing (if that) the national anthem before SA took on France.
However, it was an absolute shocker – a nightmare to match the French night sky. He was out of key, off tune and he left half his words at home. As the anthem reached the Afrikaans chorus, he mumbled off and when he did remember words he was losing the race with the melody of Nkosi sikelel’ Afrika.

The Boks just can’t catch a break, from dubious refereeing against them appalling renditions of the national anthem.

NICOLE MAGOLIE, SPRINGBOKS VS ITALY (2022)
READ: RASSIE RESPONDS ANGRILY TO OUTCRY OVER HIS TWITTER POSTS
Certainly the slowest and most laboured edition of the SA anthem you’re likely to ever see.
Magolie sang as if she was forced to in what was the most emotionless, placid and snail-paced rendition yet. Hopefully, we never see anything this slow or bad again, the players had to maintain their composure and act natural as the anthem was presented to them in slow motion. P.S try not to fall asleep when watching.
