South African learners from one school showed love to their Nigerian teacher after the AFCON win.
In a video making rounds on Twitter, the teacher is wearing his country's football club colours. Students stand on both sides of the corridor as their teacher parades, they clap hands in celebration.
Bafana Bafana lost four-two against the Super Eagles after penalties. One would expect Mzansi to be mad at the boys, but it's quite the opposite.
South Africans stanned the national team especially given their shacky start, which gave many a lot of reasons to doubt that they would make it far in the game.

Bafana lost two-nil against Mali but quickly redeemed itself when it won four-nil against Namibia in their second-match group.
