The South African Football Association says it will complain to FIFA after China canceled a friendly in Germany.

South Africa was scheduled to play China in Frankfurt on Wednesday as part of its World Cup preparations but the Chinese Football Association called off the game, saying Iceland's volcanic eruption made it "very difficult" to travel to Europe.

SAFA chief executive Leslie Sedibe said, "This is something we will take up with FIFA because we had an agreement with the China FA."

Bafana Bafana has played just one game during its German training camp, a 0-0 draw with North Korea.

Coach Carlos Alberto Parreira is desperate for South Africa to play competitive matches ahead of its June 11 World Cup opener against Mexico.
