With Bafana needing to win by three clear goals next Sunday, Mhkalele reckons it will be a moeilike job for the likes of Stellenbosch striker Judas Moseamedi and Richards Bay winger Luvuyo Memela, who he says aren’t getting enough PSL minutes.
He says: “The majority of these players, they are not getting game time at their clubs and you could see that the legs weren’t there.
“So they haven’t played and now they play in a highly-competitive match.”
He will be hoping to lift their fitness level to launch a regte fightback before the weekend’s clash at Soweto’s Dobsonville Stadium.
