Bafana back to work

Posted in News on Jun 13, 2010.

Bafana Bafana resumed training on Sunday two days after kicking off their 2010 FIFA World Cup Campaign with a commendable 1 - 1 draw against Mexico on Friday, after being given a rest day on Saturday. South Africa's Brazilian mentor Carlos Alberto Parreira a veteran of seven FIFA World Cup's gave his team of on Saturday as he is well aware of the challenges his players face being away from home for a month.



He takes a very liberal approach when it comes to his charges getting to see their friends and families, "we not in a military camp" intoned Perreira. Before moving on to comment that he encourages friends and family to visit the players, "we have a place in the hotel where the players can sit with their children, friends and visitors. As the World Cup goes on players will have less time off because the competition will become more intense".



The Chiefs players in the Bafana Bafana camp featured strongly during the opening game draw with Mexico and were all back at work with the rest of the squad early on Sunday Morning when they were put through their paces at Sturrock Park in Johannesburg.



All three Chiefs players in the team Reneilwe Letsholonyane, Siphiwe Tshabalala and Itumeleng Khune will be confident of starting in Bafana's next match against Uruguay on Wednesday.
