A lot of it we hope. As South Africa prepares to watch the match against Bafana Bafana and Senegal this evening, many have shown their support towards our national team.
Only a few hours left until we watch the World Cup Qualifier game between South Africa and Senegal and although our golden boy, Itumeleng Khune was injured this past weekend, we have no doubt that the team will succeed.
Bafana coach - Stuart Baxter in October named his 26-man Squad that will face Senegal in tonight's game and by the looks of the men he chose, we have no doubt that our national team will not disappoint.
And so do many South Africans who have voiced their support, even Julius Malema is backing our boys.
Guys,Bafana Bafana will be playing on Friday at Peter Mokaba stadium in polokwane. We have a responsibility 2 support our boys #BafanaBafana

...other South Africans strongly believe that Bafana Bafana will come out as the victors of tonight's game and we can't help but agree.
I can't wait for this Senegal team to be beaten because they think having big words in their squad it's an advantage but no soba trapaaa #BafanaBafana #2018WCQ

Meanwhile, some people were making light of Itumeleng Khune's injury. Over the past weekend, the goalkeeper sustained a fractured bone in his face during a Telkom Knock Out Game between Kaizer Chiefs and Chippa United. Khune consulted with a facial specialist this week which lead to him wearing a mask, he has since requested to play tonight's game with his mask on.
😂😂😂😂 SOUTH AFRICA needs to be closed, Why Ya'll doing KHUNE like this?? 😂😂😂#BafanaBafana pic.twitter.com/7dm2lQVBEX

As long as he blocks that ball from getting behind the net, we're more than happy for him to become our very own Zorro for the night.
Goodluck to the national squad!
The game is tonight at 20:00pm make sure you don't miss it!
