Pienaar proud
STEVEN PIENAAR insists South Africa will take a lot of heart from their Confederations Cup displays despite the disappointment of losing to Brazil in last night's semi-final.
The hosts matched Brazil stride for stride at Ellis Park and, if they had been able to supply a cutting edge to their attacks, they could have celebrated a famous victory instead of lamenting Daniel Alves' 88th-minute free-kick winner.
"It's a shame because we know there was something we could have achieved from the game but it was a great learning experience," Pienaar said.
