Africa de Sud

South Africa's World Cup build-up has been hampered by a visa snag that delayed the squad's departure. An injury concern that saw Thapelo Morena omitted from the final roster has left the attack thin, and coach Hugo Broos, who unveiled a preliminary Bafana Bafana squad in Pachuca, now faces the task of reshaping the forward line before the tournament. With their opening group game looming, South Africa must forge cohesion in training and generate enough firepower to secure a point and keep their World Cup aspirations alive.
