“I thought I was good enough to get a call-up, but it didn’t happen. It is clear I still need to work on a few things that the coach is not happy about. There is nothing left to do but to play and hope I will be called up someday.”
As reported earlier, AmaZulu general manager Lunga Sokhela has also expressed his disappointment at Baxter for not selecting the Usuthu goal minder.
