Bafana Bafana Players Did More Than Was Expected Of Them – Hugo Broos

Bafana Bafana coach, Hugo Broos has come out to reveal the significant interest shown in the national team players following their performance at Afcon 2023. He recently had his say while speaking to the press, and fans have been reacting.

According to him, the players have definitely showed the stuff they are made of in Ivory Coast, and they even did more than was expected of them.

Broos added that it is now common knowledge that there are brilliant players in South Africa for European teams to be interested in.

His words, “They’ve shown something, and I felt that, along with the players, we wanted to show something, and those players now also know and the interest there is in some players.

They now also know that this is the level they have to show their skills at, and I think they did more than we expected from them, they adapted very quickly to that level, which means they have quality.

But, again, it would be good to play a game like this [at a high level] every week, and they will then become better – that is normal when you play against good teams on a high level, and you become better too.

So, I’m very happy that we’ve played an Afcon like this and that we also showed that South Africa has good players and there are some players that others – even European teams – are interested.

That means that we did very well and those players showed that they can play at a higher level than what the championship is in South Africa [Premier Soccer League].”
