CYRIL NZAMA
Position: Defender
Born: 26.06.74
Club: Kaizer Chiefs
All players at this summer's finals will feel fortunate to be there, but the Kaizer Chiefs defender has more reason that most to be counting his lucky stars.
For earlier this year his car was hijacked by five armed men just south of Johannesburg, who then took off with his car and valuables after forcing him to strip naked in the street.
Eventually one of his fans came to his aid and the Chiefs player was in reflectant mood afterwards, saying: "I thought 'that's it, my life has come to an end'."
Thankfully he escaped the incident without serious injury and is now back playing at the top of his game.
