Finishes day with two shots
Mokoena recorded two shots (one on goal) and one cross (zero accurate) in Sunday's 1-0 loss versus Canada.
Analysis: Mokoena returned to the starting lineup after serving his suspension against South Korea and delivered an decent performance, recording two tackles, taking a shot, and completing six passes into the final third. With the team's loss on Sunday, his World Cup run comes to an end, finishing the tournament with three starts and scoring one of South Africa's only two goals, standing out as one of their more impactful contributors despite the early exit.
Suspension cleared
Mokoena has cleared his one-match ban and is available for South Africa's knockout stage fixture against Canada on June 28.
Analysis: Mokoena had missed the third group stage match against South Korea after picking up his second yellow card of the tournament against the Czech Republic, but the suspension has now been served. The midfielder, who scored a crucial penalty against the Czech Republic, is back in contention for coach Hugo Broos as South Africa look ahead to the next round.
