Tributes poured in yesterday for South African goalkeeper Senzo Meyiwa after he was gunned down at his home on Sunday evening.
Two gunmen entered the Bafana Bafana and Orlando Pirates captain's house in Vosloorus township, near Johannesburg, while an accomplice waited outside and all three fled on foot after shots were fired, police said.
The men reportedly demanded money and phones before the shots were fired.
