NINE DOWNS PLAYERS NAMED IN THE FINAL BAFANA BAFANA SQUAD

After the culmination of Mamelodi Sundowns’s extremely successful 2023/24 season, focus will be now shifted to winter international football.

Nine men from Coach Rulani’s team have been included in the final Bafana Bafana squad for the latest FIFA World Cup Qualifiers. The players include Ronwen Williams, Aubrey Modiba, Thapelo Morena, Mothobi Mvala, Grant Kekana, Khuliso Mudau, Teboho Mokoena, Bathusi Aubaas and Themba Zwane.

The two qualifiers will take place on the 7th and 11th of June 2024. The first stop for Coach Hugo Broos and his men will be against Nigeria at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo before playing hosts to Zimbabwe on June 11 at Free State Stadium in Bloemfontein.

Bafana Bafana are currently second in the Group C table of the 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers following a 2-1 victory against Benin and a 2-0 defeat against Rwanda.

Mamelodi Sundowns congratulates the nine players on their national team call-up and wishes them all the best in the two matches.

    Boh I don’t know how 2 respond 2 the Lorch ildescipline,but red flags were ignored by Rhulani and created a job for pals kind of a contract.There was absolutely no reason 4 Lorch 2 b signed from the first place &the boy never fought 4 the jersey and Sundowns suffered dearly as a consequence.He looked so desperate 2 score.Rhulani knew about lack of discipline of Thembinkosi Lorch and even if he tried to ignore that what message will b sent 2 other players.What were the reasons that made Orlando Pirates not 2 select Lorch.Remember we have been calling for Sirino’s selection and isn’t forthcoming bcoz Sirino wore an Al Ahly jersey. Then a player comes on training drunk and must get a slap on the wrist.
