      South Africa is currently ranked 54th in the FIFA world rankings. The total value of the whole team is only 49.25 million euros. The overall lineup is mainly composed of players from the local league, with few core players from the top five leagues. Their individual ability and squad depth are at the lower level in this knockout stage, and their paper strength is obviously weak. The team is in Group A, nicknamed the "Group of Death", along with Mexico, Czech Republic, and South Korea. Their qualification journey has been extremely resilient. In the first round, they lost 0-2 to the host Mexico. In the second round, they stubbornly drew with the Czech Republic. In the last round, facing a win-or-go-home situation, with two midfield cores suspended, they relied on Masekgo's winning goal to beat South Korea 1-0. Eventually, they finished second in the group with 1 win, 1 draw, and 1 loss, accumulating 4 points, and narrowly advanced to the knockout stage. Canada is ranked 32nd in the FIFA

      South Africa has been struggling in recent matches, with a win rate of only 20% and a loss rate as high as 40%. They've conceded 12 goals in total, averaging 1.2 goals per game, and have a dismal goal difference of -3, highlighting critical defensive flaws.
