South Africa coach Jomo Sono believes it is
time for an African team to take the World Cup by storm.
Sono, who watched his side beat Turkey 2-0 in a warm-up match in Hong Kong, admits an African nation reaching the semi-finals for the first time
would be a fantastic achievement.
"It's about time now that an African team made an impact," he said.
"Most of the African teams have a majority of their players based in Europe.
"If an African team gets to the semi-finals, I will consider that a
success."
Cameroon's appearance at Italia 90, where they went out in the quarter-finals
to England, represents the continent's best performance.
