Khuliso Mudau

Records four tackles in defeat

Mudau registered one cross (zero accurate) and four tackles in Thursday's 2-0 defeat versus Mexico.

Analysis: Mudau had to deal with the threat of Julian Quinones, who scored the opener, and Alexis Vega, so it was understandable that he wasn't going to play a big role going forward. Unfortunately for him, he was also unable to make a big impact on defense and looked outmatched by Quinones' pace and Vega's mobility. Mudau should remain the starting RB for South Africa against the Czech Republic, but he figures to have a tough matchup against a physical squad in that matchup.
