Following the 2-0 defeat they suffered under the hands of Germany on Saturday, Bafana Bafana will now take on Ireland.

Bafana Bafana captain Aaron Mokoena believes the pace of the players from the Ireland side is the major problem as the majority of them are based in Britain where some of the world’s best players are at.

Bafana Bafana suffered their fifth consecutive loss under Coach Joel Santana, but most of the players and officials are optimistic about the improvement of the side saying they are taking everything as a learning experience.

Tonight’s match is going to be Mokoena’s 50th as Bafana captain, Mokoena has featured for the national side 92 times. Kick off is at 7:30.
