Bongani Zungu of South Africa team said
“We prepared well and mentally focused. We know it’s going to be a very tough game. We are looking forward to a nice game for the Cairo people.
It’s normal, they’re the host and they’ve got good players that we respect, but on the pitch its 11 versus 11.
It should be a nice football game. We have to focus and prepare well and we’re confident.
I think we have been defending very well and it’s inspiring to be part of the national team that reached the last 16.
We are excited with this challenge and we are ready. We have quality players and hopefully we will show that at the game.”
