Bafana Bafana are highly motivated and prepared to make World Cup history.
After three unsuccessful attempts in France in 1998, South Korea and Japan in 2002 and on home soil in 2010, South Africa are on the cusp of progressing to the knockout stage of the Fifa World Cup for the first time.
However, for this to happen, they must dig deep and beat highly organised, high work rate, classy on paper and superbly drilled South Korea in their final match of Group A at Estadio Monterrey on Wednesday 7pm local time, 3am Thursday SA time.
