Abalandeli abayizimbangi bangase bangathandi, kodwa isikwati seBafana kumele sakhiwe ngabadlali abasezingeni eliphezulu kubhala uMichael Madyira.
Umqeqeshi weBafana Bafana, uHugo Broos ngoLwesibili umemezele isikwati sakhe sesikhashana samalungu angu-35 esizodlala namazwe aphesheya.
Iqembu lizobhekana ne-Liberia emdlalweni olandelanayo wokuhlungela i-Africa Cup of Nations ka-2023 ngasekupheleni kukaNdasa.
Njengenjwayelo amagama abadlali abakhethiwe kanye namagama alabo abangangenanga esikwatini adingidwa umhlaba wonke.
Okugqame kakhulu ngokukhetha kukaBroos ngabadlali abayishumi beMamelodi Sundowns.
Kubalandeli bezimbangi kuyacasula lokhu futhi kuyisikhumbuzo sokuthi iSundowns iyona enabadlali abahamba phambili ebholeni lakuleli.
Nokho lokhu kufanelekile.
ISundowns iyizimbangi ku-Caf Champions League okuyilapho abadlali bakuleli bebelokhu bezuza ulwazi olubalulekile.
Eqenjini elihlala lihlangane futhi elesatshwa ompetha abafana ne-Al Ahly, i-Wydad Casablanca, i-TP Mazembe kanye ne-Esperance, ingabe abadlali balo bayayazi indlela yabo endaweni yebhola lase-Afrika?
Abanye abadlali okuthenjelwe kubo uBroos ubona ukuthi abanawo amava aphesheya futhi bavame ukuhluleka esigabeni esiphezulu.
I-Spain iwine iNdebe Yomhlaba ye-Fifa ka-2010 nabadlali abayisikhombisa be-Barcelona eqenjini labo labadlali abangu-23 nomqeqeshi uVicente del Bosque kanti uMadridsta waphoqeleka ukuba adlale ngendlela yebhola le-Barca.
Ngakho-ke, kunengqondo ukukhetha abadlali beSundowns futhi empeleni kufanele ngabe kukhethwe abangaphezu kwalaba abayishumi abakhethiwe.
Kodwa kunzima ukuqonda ukuthi uBroos umshiye kanjani uNeo Maema noRushine de Reuck.
Ngokungangabazeki uMaema ungomunye wabadlali basesiswini abazimisele kakhulu ku-Premier Soccer League futhi udlala ifomu enhle kule sizini.
Nokho okujabulisa kakhulu ukufakwa komgadli obhekwe ngabomvu, uCassius Mailula osekusele kancane ukuthi angene esikwatini sokugcina futhi ekugcineni adlale okokuqala eqenjini lesizwe.
Okunye okukhulunywe ngakho ngesikwati sikaBroos ukuthi munye umdlali weKaizer Chiefs othenjwayo e-Belgium.
Kukhethwe unozinti oyedwa uBrandon Petersen futhi kungenzeka angangeni eqenjini lokugcina labadlali abangu-23. Kuyaqala eqenjini leChiefs ukuthi kukhethwe abadlali abancane, kufanele kumkhathaze kakhulu umqeqeshi u-Arthur Zwane.
