Mamelodi Sundowns stopper Ronwen Williams, Orlando Pirates gloveman Sipho Chaine and Goss have been the preferred choice of goalkeepers for Bafana Bafana head coach Hugo Broos.
The Belgian is expected to name his final World Cup squad on May 27, but as many as four keepers are in contention, after Brandon Petersen excelled for Kaizer Chiefs this season.
Chaine was also in top form with 20 clean sheets as Pirates look to claim the Betway Premiership title, while Goss, who is on loan from Sundowns, continued to impress, with his 14 clean sheets.
Speaking ahead of the announcement, the Siwelele player admitted that it’s “every footballer’s dream to represent the country…at the World Cup.”
“Obviously it is a bit difficult. You can see the quality of goalkeepers this season has gone up a bit. You can even see the number of clean sheets has increased,” Goss said in the Sowetan.

“I don’t think we’ve had more than 15 clean sheets for three goalkeepers in one season. I think it’s a challenge and [ideally there could be] a World Cup every year so the league and standard can go a bit high.
“It’s been a challenge, but it has been an interesting one because there are quite a lot of us who have put our names in the hat and yeah, we will just wait for next week and see how that goes.”
“I think this has been my best season so far because my record was 10 clean sheets and I’m on 14 now. I think it has been good for the team and me as well,” he added.
“It’s every footballer’s dream to represent the country, especially at the World Cup. It is my dream to actually take part in the tournament — so no pressure!”
