Time for Bafana Bafana to write own history
Until the current team wins something, it would be difficult to call them the greatest SA side ever assembled
Until the current generation of Bafana Bafana players win something‚ it would be difficult to call them the greatest national team ever assembled‚ reserve goalkeeper Darren Keet said. Bafana face Angola in a friendly international match at Buffalo City Stadium in East London on Tuesday night and Keet said that it would be good for the country if the new national team coach kept the core of the team together and beefed it up with in-form players every now and then. "It’s a good feeling for the guys to be recognised as probably one of the best teams around for SA‚" he said. "Hopefully, it only gets better from there." Asked if he agreed with his teammate Kamohelo Mokotjo‚ who was quoted as saying he is honoured to be part of the best squad yet to be assembled‚ the Wits goalkeeper said it was hard to say. "We’ve had a lot of teams that have done well for Bafana. Obviously, they won the Africa Nations Cup in 96 and the team that went to the 2002 World Cup actually did well.
