Bafana Bafana coach Joel Santana has opted to use locally based players when they meet Guinea in an international friendly this evening.

Santana have come under fire after Bafana failed to qualify for the AFCON 2010 in Angola.

Bafana Bafana lost 1-0 to Nigeria last weekend. However SAFA’s Raymond Hack said this is not a train smash, as it will give Bafana more time to focus on the 2010 Fifa World Cup.

Guinea is ranked number 41 in the Fifa World soccer ranking. Guinea played to a goalless draw on Sunday against Zimbabwe, in a bid to qualify for the 2010 AFCON.
