The Zebras coach, David Bright says his side is targeting the final of the COSAFA Cup, despite taking a team without the foreign-based legion to the regional tournament, which starts in Polokwane on Sunday.

Bright has named a 20-man squad for the tournament omitting a number of South African-based players including Mogakolodi Ngele, Thabang Sesinyi, Mpho Kgaswane and Kabelo Dambe. He has opted for younger players, with an average age of 24.
