Hugo Broos Relaxed as Bafana Bafana Take Aim at Liberia!

Hugo Broos Relaxed as Bafana Bafana Take Aim at Liberia! The national team will face a crunch fixture tonight.

Bafana Bafana visit Liberia in AFCON Qualification tonight. Head coach Hugo Broos has revealed that he is calm ahead of the all-important game.

South Africa needs to claim all three points if they are going to make it to the African Cup of Nations in Ivory Coast next year. If they draw, they will need a draw against Morocco in their last match and if they lose, they will need to defeat the North Africans.

These two sides played out to a 2-2 draw at the Orlando Stadium last Friday.

“Here today [Monday], I’m relaxed. Tomorrow [Today] at four o’clock, I will be nervous,” the Belgian told the press yesterday.

“I think this is totally normal even when I have 35 years’ experience as a coach. I know that tomorrow it’s a very important [match] for South Africa.

“We like to win, and we have to win to be assured of a next year. There will be normal stress.

“It’s normal being nervous. But now today, I’m not at all.” He spoke.

Broos also addressed concerns of playing on synthetic turf, in Monrovia.

“We gave them hope and belief on Friday, so it is up to us to show from the beginning of the game that they don’t have to believe that they don’t have to have that hope to have a good result,” Broos told SAFA media.

“It is tough, I did not see the weather and pitch. But I think the synthetic pitch is always a little bit tricky but okay.

“It is one day [Monday] before the game. We know we will have to do it tomorrow [Tuesday] afternoon and I am also convinced that my team is ready.

“It is not enough to be only the better team and that is what Liberia proved and showed us last week. It is up to us not to make the same mistakes and to begin the game ready.”

Kick-off is at 18h00. Hugo Broos Relaxed as Bafana Bafana Take Aim at Liberia!
