Bad news for Bafana Bafana. The national team of South Africa will be without two of their executives on Wednesday for the friendly match against Brazil.

The first to declare unavailable is no one other than Itumeleng Khune, Bafana captain and goalkeeper. He was injured in his ankle in the warm-up before last Saturday’s Kaizer Chiefs Champions League game.

Gordon Igesund, Bafana Bafana coach recalled the Orlando Pirates goalkeeper Senzo Meyiwa to replace Khune. The other player missing is Kagisho Dikgacoi. The Crystal Palace player suffers from a back pain.

South Africa is the quest for a second friendly feat after beating four months ago in Johannesburg Spain (1-0).
