Ntseki: Bafana are ready to get the ball rolling

Molefi Ntseki

Bafana Bafana coach Molefi Ntseki says the team are adapting well to the surrounds in Rustenburg as they prepare for their upcoming friendlies against Namibia and Zambia.

The South African national team arrived in Rustenburg on Tuesday afternoon and went straight into their first training session ahead of their two international friendlies matches.

'I am glad that the team has finally settled down and ready to get the ball rolling after Monday’s frustrations with the rains,' Ntseki told Safa.net.

'We had a light session with a lot of ball work to allow the players to get back into full swing. They were very eager to get back onto the pitch and reunite after such a long time. I believe that everything we had been working on before COVID-19 just came back to the senior players, while the newcomers also adapted very easily.

'We will work on our game tactics in our video session later today and focus more in depth on Namibia in tomorrow’s session.'

FourFourTwo was launched in 1994 on the back of a World Cup that England hadn’t even qualified for. It was an act of madness… but it somehow worked out. Our mission is to offer our intelligent, international audience access to the game’s biggest names, insightful analysis... and a bit of a giggle. We unashamedly love this game and we hope that our coverage reflects that.
