National Division Qualification Resumen

The World Cup fever is rising every day even though the actual action will start in three months' time. Every team always has star players, and in the South African case, President Yama 2000 is one of them. The Bucs star is relatively young, but expectations on him are always high, as many expect him to carry the team.

Mamelodi Sundowns have reclaimed their dominance in the South African national team by contributing eight players to the national team. Orlando Pirates, who had recently enjoyed strong representation, now have six players in the squad. Both clubs are well represented, as South Africa are participating in international friendly matches against Panama.

Hugo Broos has always trusted the Masandawana keeper as his first choice even when he has other viable options. Going into the global showpiece, the Belgian is not expected to tinker with his goalkeeping department. However, those he will pick to deputise the Downs skipper is expected to be a hot topic in the debates.

The Masandawana star is shining again and returned to the national setup after one year in the cold. Hugo Broos kept snubbing the midfielder after a fallout when the star was called up but turned up late for national team duties. Should he continue with his current form, then his chances of playing in the World Cup are high.
