Ex-Bafana captain Hlatshwayo accepts his continued exclusion, wishes team well against Ethiopia HadebeSazieso
Thulani Hlatshwayo of Orlando Pirates during the CAF Confederation Cup match against Enyimba at Orlando Stadium on March 17 2021 in Johannesburg. He's backing coach Hugo Broos's endeavour to introduce young talent into the Bafana Bafana squad.
“I think it would be unfair for me to say I’m sad or mad because the national team is not about Tyson, it’s not about Thulani,” said Hlatshwayo at an event held by his sponsors Adidas at the Cape Town Stadium this week. “You know sometimes we don’t want to mention it as players, that it’s time for change, and before us there were people there. We also came and took over from your Sangweni and Morgan Gould who were there before us.
“Like I mentioned before, the only way you can be called into the national team is when you’re doing well for your team. So I have to do well for my club, Pirates.” “We’re a results-driven country and for the team to go to Zimbabwe and get a point, it was good enough.
