[Sandiselwe @Gama_Maverick]

The best commentary I’ve ever heard, I still get goosebumps ❤️. May the ineffable legend Kaunda Ntunja Rest In Peace 🙌🏾

[UF @UtdFaithfuls]

Never forget when Maguire recently said this about Casemiro:

"I thought I was good at headers until I met Casemiro. He's the BEST I've seen and worked with."

You know how good your head game must be for Maguire to say this.

[Andy Mitten @AndyMitten]

Casemiro’s head should be on the UNESCO world heritage list.

[THIRD TIME TREBLE CHAMPION 🏆🏆🏆 : MissPalulu❤️ @MissPalulu]

Imagine our defenders getting injured & a young DDC defender getting called up to the senior team. He goes on to make his debut on the 5th of March 2025 & the rest was history.

The story of the heist Orlando Pirates committed by snatching Mbekezeli Mbokazi from AmaZulu.

[Adam @AdamJoseph]

Kobbie Mainoo will never get enough credit for what a good midfield partner he was for Casemiro, but the World Cup has been all the glaring proof that you need. Bruno Guimarães hasn't come close to matching what Mainoo was able to do for him (in tougher competition).

[Geist @TysonCreme]

Hugo Broos was necessary.

From the captain begging us to watch them play, to a historic WC achievement for our nation. Longest unbeaten streak in the world along the way. He revived us.

Solid foundation, history maker but it’s definitely time to go. Thank u for your service 🙏🏾

[Hinokami Kagura @Khuze_Elikhulu]

I'd like our next coach to adopt some Rassie-isms. Call like 50-70 players from PSL, Diski Challenge and offshore and have a week-long camp with them so they'll know what's expected of them. And talk to their coaches also. We are so close, so close to a generational Bafana run.

[DB @martianTGOD]

The South African team is getting scouted I'm so happy, they are getfing the respect they deserve. Guys like Khuliso Mudau getting plaudits is really tears to my eyes ❤️😭

[Lesilo Rula @kay_mahapa]

Day 1 of having no personal interest in the World Cup. Is this… how it feels to be Nigerian? This is no way to live 💔

[Sibongile Mafu @sboshmafu]

As the emotions settle, I can acknowledge Hugo Broos’s legacy. Watching Bafana Bafana over the last 5 years has been an absolute pleasure. South African football has been re-invigorated with way more highs than lows. I’m excited for the future.

[Kelly R @KelRo736]

I want to buy a Chicago Fire Mbokazi jersey now - just because you're so incredibly invested in our starboy. I know promoting such an amazing player can net a great payday for you if you end up selling, too, but you saw value in him when foreign clubs tried to fit him into stereotypes. You respected the competition offered in PSL and you respected the local voices who supported him. You were right to do so.

In a world where African soccer is routinely maligned even by those in power, you still saw him. It should be the bare minimum for recruiters but unfortunately it isn't. You were the exception to the rule and you loved him for us when he was so far away from home.

Even at the very risk you'd have him for a good time, not a long time.

South Africa ❤️ @ChicagoFire and @MLS for this

[𝙰𝙺 𝚄𝚉𝚄𝙼𝙰𝙺𝙸 🦊 @Akhona_PQ]

This is the best Bafana squad we've ever had. I will forever be proud of them. They made me believe again.

For now I need to cry, process and heal.

[Hlovo @hlovo_]

Mudau, Mbokazi, Okon and Modiba did a stellar job today

Our attackers let them down by not pressing enough. They could create some spaces between the Canadian defence when they wanted to.

[Hlabane Tebatso Matt® @hlabanematt]

Y’all don’t give Ime Okon the credit he deserves. This laaitie is good.

[DK 🇿🇦 @ditebogomailula]

You can tell on this app when an opinion about a player is genuine criticism or rooted in clubism. 😅

[mrnigerianfootball @CFCNigerian]

They were never bad to begin with. They just had a bad opening game. You'd know that if you actually watched them.

[Lerato. @baddaysareover]

Jokes aside, watching Bafana Bafana play in this World Cup was so much fun! They mean everything to me. 🥹🤍🇿🇦

[Ta West 🇿🇦 @wfreemantle]

We woke up to so many MORE kids in SA wanting to play for the National Team. They're gonna go to school and practice like their heroes of this team!
Thank you Bafana Bafana for making us all dream and the incredible atmosphere you brought.
No DNA, Always RSA 🥹💚🇿🇦

[Roger Bonet "Ruxi" @Ruxiiii4]

Ronwen Williams.

I don't think there's a better ball-playing goalkeeper at this World Cup.

That's the main reason Canada are reluctant to step out and press him. They know he'll find the pass to break their press, turning their pressure into South Africa's advantage.

He's the goalkeeper with the most progressive passes at this World Cup by a considerable margin.

He also ranks in the top 10 among all players for progressive passes.

He's one of the main reasons I'm convinced South Africa can build from the back and stay true to their footballing identity.

His passing technique and composure on the ball are outstanding.

[AB⚕ @AbsoluteBruno]

I’m literally crying man😭……isn’t this also the same guy that pulled off the double nutmeg??
