Cape Town - Outspoken Minister of Sport, Fikile Mbalula, took to Twitter to congratulate Bafana Bafana on their recent good form.
Fikile Mbalula made the headlines in January 2014 after he lambasted the national team following their exit from the 2014 AFCON Championship.
The Minister of Sport said at that time: "What I saw there was not a problem of coaching, it was a bunch of losers, who don't have any respect for this country and don't have any respect for anybody,".
It now appears that the Minister's faith in the national team has been restored after he took to Twitter to display his happiness with the team's progress under Shakes Mashaba.
Here is a selection of Mbalula's tweets:
