South Africa coach Carlos Alberto Parreira called up three
foreign-based players to his squad for the friendly match against
Namibia next week and said it will be a "profound gesture" for
South Africa to celebrate the 100-day countdown to the World Cup.
Parreira named defenders Bradley Carnell, Bryce Moon and
Bevan Fransman in his 22-man squad on Thursday and left out English
Premier League players Steven Pienaar and Aaron Mokoena, South
Africa's captain.
Parreira said he already knew enough about the pair and did
not need them to travel for the game in Durban.
South Africa's Bafana Bafana will play Namibia next Wednesday
at the Moses Mabhida Stadium, one of the new World Cup venues.
