World Cup hosts South Africa arrested a run of five matches without a win when they beat Malawi 3-0 in a friendly international at Germiston in Johannesburg on Tuesday.
An experimental side, made up of home-based players, provided relief for beleaguered coach Joel Santana in a match designed to allow the Brazilian further opportunity to side up local talent.
Bernard Parker opened the scoring with a header from a corner in the 32nd minute and added a second 10 minutes from time. Substitute Daine Klate scored the third goal at the end of the game.
South Africa have put together an extensive programme of friendly matches as they build a team for their hosting of the 2010 World Cup finals.
