Bafana Bafana lost 1-0 to Canada in their FIFA World Cup Round of 32 knockout match at Los Angeles Stadium on Sunday.
Stephen Eustáquio scored the winner deep in added time after the 90 minutes were up, as Bafana crashed out of the tournament.
The sides went to half-time goalless after the opening period saw few real chances, except one which fell to Canada.
Canada delivered a well-placed header which resulted in a goalmouth scuffle as a number of shots were blocked before Aubrey Modiba cleared the ball off the line to help his side remain level.
Overall though, Mbekezeli Mbokazi was the standout player in the Bafana defence.
