Indeed, the two look alike and there’s no way we can’t make a wow about this.
Shaun Bartlett is a South African former professional football striker. In December 2018, he became the assistant manager of Kaizer Chiefs F.C. in South Africa.
@Emma_Tsebe went on some digging journey, well, doubt he expected it to blow up this. He dug a picture of 1996 as in 1996 Bafana Bafana squad, and tweeps spotted Trevor Noah in the mix – which was actually funny!

@Emma_Tsebe captioned the picture: “The only Bafana Bafana we ever had.” The team (then) was made up of retired soccer legends such as Eric Tinkler, Lucas Radebe, Neil Tovey, Philemon Masinga, John Moet, including the late John “Shoes” Moshoeu to name just a few. The team’s captain, Shaun Bartlett was mistaken for Trevor Noah.
“With Trevor Noah on the squad, I bet the opponents laughed all the time hence they always won,” @MissMrAngel said.
