Bafana Bafana striker Luther Singh has revealed that he believes his side has the ability to shine in the Cosafa Cup.

Bafana, as one of the seeded teams, will begin their participation in the tournament at the quarter-final stage with a clash against Madagascar on Sunday at the New Peter Mokaba Stadium.

The 20-year-old forward received a recall to the Bafana squad for the tournament after making his debut in March 2017.

‘It’s an honour to be back in the national team again. It has been a while because of the talent we have in this country, so you will never know who will be called up to Bafana Bafana,’ said Singh.

‘There have been good players called up not because they are liked, but because they are talented. I was just working hard as I also love representing my country and we know that not everyone can get a call-up. I have been improving myself to be a better person, a better player and I knew the opportunity would come again. It was just a matter of time, I just had to be patient.’

Singh will be a part of a Bafana squad under coach Stuart Baxter for the first time and he has revealed the feeling in the camp.

‘There’s a good mixture in the squad of less experienced players and those who have been here before. I think with the group we have, we can do well in the tournament if we work together as a team. We know it won’t be easy, but I believe in the group we have and the technical team, and if we play as a unit, I don’t think there is anyone that can stop us.’

The forward comes into the squad on the back of signing a five-year contract with Primeira Liga side Braga B in Portugal.
