Before jetting off to his new managerial role in Saudi Arabia, South African boss Pitso Mosimane hosted a wonderful evening event to celebrate the Bafana Bafana Class of 2010, where the likes of Thanduyise Khuboni and Siyabonga Nomvethe were all present. Here's a look!
The story
Having been appointed as the head coach of Saudi outfit Al-Ahli Jeddah, Mosimane had quite a send-off as he invited the Class of 2010 to his home for a proper and nostalgic farewell.
Former stars who were present also included Teko Modise, Reneilwe Letsholonyane, Morgan Gould, Lance Davids, Katlego Mphela, Bernard Parker, and the man who scored the opening goal of the tournament Siphiwe Tshabalala.

The nostalgic affair brought quite some memories, as the Class of 2010 is the collective that famously beat France in the country's last ever group stage match. Killer Mphela was of course one of the scorers that memorable evening at the Free State Stadium, while former Tottenham Hotspur defender Bongani Khumalo also go on the scoresheet through a powerful header.
Reactions:
Reacting to the event on Instagram, Khuboni said: "God is great. It was a night to remember with the 2010 World Cup teammates as we were bidding farewell to coach Pitso. Thank you for the invite. We wish you all the best of luck at your new club."
Meanwhile, Shabba said: "A day well spent with the legends. Thank you coach Pitso Mosimane for hosting us #classof2010"
