As a country, I sometimes feel as if we don’t speak enough about Benni McCarthy man! He also scored our first ever World Cup goal in ‘98 by the way! Leading the line at 20! Almost got us out of the group stages in ‘02 and also still our only UEFA Champions League winner in ‘04 🐐
Mbekezeli Mbokazi (20y 265d) is the second-youngest South African to start a World Cup match, after Benni McCarthy in all three games in 1998.
