Bafana will come up against Angola in their second friendly international at the Buffalo city Stadium in East London on Tuesday night. Keet has advised the new national team coach not to change the current squad and to, instead, call up in-form players to reinforce the team.
“It’s a good feeling for the guys to be recognised as probably one of the best teams around for South Africa‚” he said.
“Hopefully, it only gets better from there.”
“We’ve had a lot of teams that have done well for Bafana. Obviously they won the Africa Nations Cup in ’96 and the team that went to the 2002 World Cup actually did well.
“As a team we haven’t achieved much – we haven’t won so it’s hard to really say on that basis because people want a team who are going to win things‚” he said.
“I think we need a chance. We need a chance to get there and then we can see later what happens.
“You can never say a team is the best when you haven’t won a thing‚ so let’s hope we do get there. Let’s hope we do go upwards and continue to improve as a team.”
