Mbekezeli Mbokazi -- known back home as "TLB" -- has transitioned from newfound stardom in South Africa to becoming the bedrock of the Chicago Fire FC's defensive line.

Pachuca is the capital of the state of Hidalgo, located in central Mexico, about 90 kilometers north of Mexico City, and will be the base for South Africa's team at the FIFA World Cup in June.
