Modise Counts On Bafana Supporters
22 January 2010
 Bafana Bafana midfielder Teko Modise says he is raring to go if selected for tomorrow's Training Match against Swaziland at Chatsworth Stadium. Kick off is 4pm.
Modise says players are going all out with only a win in their minds for both games, including the Friendly International match against Zimbabwe at Moses Mabhida Stadium on Wednesday (27 January) which kicks off at 8.30pm.
"I urge Bafana supporters to buy tickets now for the the game against Zimbabwe. We need all supporters to be there for us as we take on Swaziland at Chatsworth Stadium tomorrow and Zimbabwe on Wednesday. The Moses Mabhida Stadium has already shown that it attracts big crowds, so it would be wise for supporters to buy their tickets immediately to avoid disappointments. The Coach has shown confidence in us and we intend to reward him in the upcoming two games.
"We don't expect the games to be a walk in the park, but our game plan is a win and another win. I'm particualry happy with the encouragement I have received from the Coach and also his words of wisdom to us all in our preparations," says Modise.
Luvhengo Mungomeni is excited: "This is my first call up and I don't want to mess it up. The National Team is not the same as a club. The challenges are at a higher level, because the responsibility is higher as well. So, I hope I will get a chance to be fielded so that I can enhance my chances for a future call up and also to expand my experience at this level."
Matthew Pattison says the training has been good and hard. "I'm hopeful that I will get a chance to play in one of the games, so that I can try and establish myself for a call up again and to try and give options in future for the selectors."
In the preparations yesterday, the Team started with a gynasium session at the Gateway Mall's Virgin Active in the morning and continued in the afternoon in a closed Training Session at Absa Stadium.
Admission for tomorrow's Training Match against Swaziland at Chatswworth Stadium is free, but only a maximum of 18 000 will be admitted. The Friendly Match against Zimbabwe at Moses Mabhida Stadium will be charged at R40 all round, except for children aged 7 and under who have free entery.
Tickets for the Wednesday are already on sale at Computicket and Shoprite -Checkers.
