The Lesotho Football Association chief has denied any meeting with the NFF regarding South Africa fielding an ineligible player.
South Africa's 2-0 victory over Lesotho last Friday is under scrutiny following a request from the Lesotho Football Association and the NFF to FIFA.
They are investigating the possibility that South Africa fielded an ineligible player, Teboho Mokoena, during the match.
The Association questioned Teboho Mokoena's eligibility to play against Lesotho, given his yellow cards in previous matches.

Lesotho FA responds about South African ineligible player
Mohapi was questioned by Newzroom Afrika about whether he had been in contact with the Nigeria Football Federation.
)
He said, "I must be honest with you. If I were to talk to the Nigeria Football Federation, I would talk to Dr. Sanusi, who is the secretary general.
"I haven't spoken to him ever since we were in Egypt. We were in Egypt around March 9th, so the match was not even played, we didn't even know.
)
"In fact if he would have told me then, 'are you aware of this and this?', we would have raised on time because we would have known before the match was played.
"I was alerted by a friend of mine who is not even Nigerian, for that matter, that you are following what is happening. There's this furor that there's an illegible player who has played.
"Then I called my team manager if we played a defaulter, he said we are okay, I checked my records, and then I said that could be South Africa."
Despite the Lesotho Football Association (LeFA) protest not being submitted on time, Secretary General Mokhosi Mohapi remains confident in its success. He revealed that the association has been in constant communication with FIFA.
If Lesotho's appeal for Mokoena is successful, they will move to nine points. This could reduce South Africa's lead to just 10 points, leaving them only three points ahead of Nigeria with four fixtures remaining.
