Rarely has an international break largely devoid of competitive fixtures felt so loaded for Africa's national sides, with the continent still reeling in the aftermath of a chaotic Africa Cup of Nations.

South Africa will host Panama on Friday in Durban -- the first of two friendlies over the course of the international break -- before facing them again in Cape Town next Tuesday.

Vinícius Júnior says Brazil neither deserves, nor wants, to have the favourite tag attached to it heading into the World Cup this summer.
