What Broos likes about Shabalala
Orlando Pirates forward Relebohile Mofokeng has withdrawn from the Bafana Bafana squad.
The 20-year-old suffered an injury during last Saturday’s 1-0 victory over Siwelele FC in the Carling Knockout last 16.
Kaizer Chiefs’ 21-year-old midfielder Mduduzi Shabalala has been called up to replace him.
“You have seen the games of Chiefs. I think he is someone who … knows where to run and where there is space,” said Bafana Bafana coach Hugo Broos.

“His best position for me is behind the striker, so if we use him, we will use him in that position,” Broos added before Tuesday’s training session at Dobsonville Stadium.
