'He was a gentleman' - Tributes continue to pour in for Phil Masinga

Really saddened to hear about the the passing of my old teammate Phil Masinga. Always had a smile on his face and a great example to all as to what could be achieved with dedication, perseverance and ability. Thoughts with his family and friends.

Heard with great sadness about the passing of Phil Masinga - great ambassador for SA football; exciting player; humble man and a pleasure to have known. He left us too early. Wishing his loved ones much strength during this sad moment.

It is no exaggeration. Phil Masinga almost singlehandedly carried us to the 1998 World Cup!
