The Chippa United man believes Guinea-Bissau can shock South Africa if they don’t take their friendly seriously.
“We take each game serious. We just have to go out there and give it our best shot. Most of the teams when they play against South Africa go all out because they always want to beat us,” Thopola is quoted as saying by The Sowetan.
“We are well aware of that. We have studied both opponents and know what to expect from them. We are more than ready for them.
“I would appreciate it if I could get a chance to play because I am familiar with the Bafana set-up now. It means a lot for me to be part of the national team.
“This means for me as a player, I am growing. I’ve been playing well in the PSL and doing well for my team, but it’s up to the coach if he plays me or not.”
