Ex-Bafana player Nomvethe on Fifa World Cup 2026 qualifiers
October 10, 2025
|The Star
FORMER Bafana Bafana striker Siyabonga Nomvethe has urged Hugo Broos and his side to remain focused on their journey as they chase qualification for the 2026 Fifa World Cup, which will be jointly hosted by the US, Canada, and Mexico.
South Africa finds itself in a strong position heading into their next clash against Zimbabwe at the Moses Mabhida Stadium (6pm kickoff) on Friday. They are level on 14 points with Group C leaders Benin, who top the standings only on goal difference.
Their second fixture in this round of qualifiers will see them take on a Rwanda side that beat them 2-0 in the first leg, at the Mbombela Stadium on Tuesday.
Bafana last featured on the global stage when the tournament was hosted on home soil in 2010. The last time they qualified for the World Cup was in 2002, and most of the current players were still toddlers.
While history waits to be rewritten, Nomvethe has already carved his name into it through his exploits in a Bafana jersey.
