Willem Jackson, who featured in two matches for Bafana during the 1998 FIFA World Cup in France, believes the return of the duo completes the puzzle for the already impressive Bafana team.

“I’m really happy for Broos as he’s a national team coach who knows what he wants.” Jackson tells Kickoff.com.

“The players that they selected, I think that they can do the job. The two senior guys in Percy Tau and Dolly, with their experience, can help the team.

It’s a good team. They can help us progress. It’s all youngsters so they are determined. They know what is expected of them. And the country is behind them. I hope they don’t disappoint the people of South Africa.” Continued the former top defender.

“Percy Tau is playing in Egypt. He played overseas. Keagan Dolly played overseas. And they have international experience. For them to be available for the national team, it’s a plus for some of the youngsters.

“The game at home will be very crucial. We need to get the three points. When Ghana wins and we win, we are going to the last game. And all we need there it’s a draw.” Addede Jackson.
