In this week’s edition of Soccer-Laduma, issue 838, we rate the Bafana Bafana players’ performances following the 4-1 win over Botswana, in the Group A FIFA World Cup qualifier.

With the FIFA World Cup qualifiers having taking centre stage this past weekend, all eyes were on South Africa and as a result, Soccer-Laduma’s weekly ‘Team of the Week’ does not feature in this week’s edition, and has been substituted with the Bafana player ratings.

Here's the Bafana Bafana line up, why don't you select your ratings and see how close you come to Soccer-Laduma's on Wednesday.
