Scores but earns suspension

Mokoena will miss South Africa's third group stage fixture against South Korea on June 24 in Monterrey after picking up his second yellow card of the tournament in the 34th minute of the clash against the Czech Republic. He also scored the team's lone goal with a penalty in the second half.

Analysis: Mokoena was booked for a late tackle on Vladimir Coufal, triggering an automatic suspension after having already received a yellow card in the opening group stage match against Mexico. He still made his presence felt in this game, however, scoring a key penalty down the stretch to keep the Bafana Bafana's qualifying chances alive with one game left for them in the group stage. His absence will be a significant blow for coach Hugo Broos heading into a crucial fixture that could determine South Africa's chances of progressing from Group A, with the midfielder one of the key figures in the Bafana Bafana engine room. The disciplinary concerns are compounded by the fact that Sphephelo Sithole and Themba Zwane were also suspended for the Czech Republic match, highlighting a growing problem with discipline that could prove costly at a critical stage of the tournament.
