SONO READY FOR TOUGH TEST

South Africa coach Jomo Sono admitted his side faces it's toughest test yet when they take on fellow World Cup finalists Turkey on Thursday.

Bafana Bafana enjoyed a 2-0 victory over a transitional Scotland side yesterday but were far from impressive despite the result.

However, Sono was delighted to have a win under his belt as he prepares to meet Spain, Slovenia and Paraguay in Group B of the first phase.

``Scotland gave us a good game, they are a very good country,'' said Sono.

``It was important for us to win to get our confidence back.

``I was happy we dominated the game and we played a good passing game besides the hot conditions and the wet and heavy pitch.

``Our biggest test will be against Turkey.''
