Former Bafana Bafana captain Lucas Radebe has urged South Africans to rally behind the team ahead of their final group match of the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations.
Stuart Baxter's men are desperate for a positive result against already-qualified Morocco tonight to secure their passage to the knockout stages following Friday's morale-boosting 1-0 win over Namibia.

"Morocco is a very strong side with quality players, I think they already qualified for the next round and they might use our game to rest some of their key players," Radebe said at the Siyabonga Sangweni Youth Festival in Dondotha on Saturday.
"I think they might let their guard down and I fancy our chances against them especially coming from a victory on Friday. The confidence from our boys will play a huge part, we need three or one point to qualify for the next round."
Radebe also believes Stuart Baxter will be judged based on results, like any other coach, but thinks based on the squad he is building, the country must be patient with him.

"I'm really not sure about the coaching, with the team he has built I think they should let him continue," he added.
"I'm a little bit disappointed that I'm not there with the team, but with Mark Fish and Andre Arendse there we are well represented, we just need to support the team.
"It's up to SAFA to decide who should be there and honestly speaking both of them deserve to be there. I'm hoping next time I will also get a chance."
