Former Bafana Bafana and Orlando Pirates player Papi Khomane was buried alongside his mother, Rita Nomasonto Khomane, and uncle Moffat Norman Nkosi on December 2, in a ceremony attended by scores of mourners, including football players.  The 48-year-old soccer legend died together with his two family members in a car crash a fortnight ago.
