Football development expert and long-time student of the late Ted Dumitru, Zipho Dlangalala delivered a powerful keynote address at the inaugural Ted Dumitru Memorial Lecture in Durban on Monday, paying tribute to the legendary coach's contribution to South African and African football development.
Organised by the QB Ingomuso Foundation, the lecture marked 10 years since Dumitru's passing on 26 May 2016 and reflected on his enduring football philosophy, particularly his belief in youth development and African football identity.
Speaking before coaches, football administrators, former players and development practitioners, Dlangalala emotionally recalled the final conversation he shared with Dumitru on the day of his death.
