This was a significant public relations campaign and relationship building exercise untertaken ahead of the two teams meeting in the Club World Cup.

Masandawana departed for the United States on Sunday and will face stiff competition from Borussia Dortmund, Brazil’s Fluminense FC, and Ulsan HD FC of South Korea.

As one of four African teams participating in this expanded edition of the tournament, the Chloorkop side's global reputation continues to grow.

Their presence in Germany, even in this unfamiliar manner, is a sign of their rising international profile.
