The coach of the South African national team, Hugo Broos, has sent a note of warning to the Super Eagles and other teams in their group ahead of the World Cup qualifiers.
Broos, who was speaking in a chat with Sunday World said that the Bafana Bafana is not afraid of other teams in their group, including; Nigeria, Rwanda, Zimbabwe and Benin Republic.
According to him, South Africa did very well in their last friendly match against Algeria, like they did at the last AFCON and they do not need to be afraid of any team.

“We played against a very strong team, but I do not think there was much difference between the quality of our game and the quality of the game in Algeria,” Broos said per Sunday World.
“That means we have progressed in the last few months. We already showed that in the AFCON, and we did it again against Algeria. So, I don’t think we have to be afraid anymore of playing against any team in Africa
Next month, the Super Eagles of Nigeria will play their tantalizing match against Bafana Bafana of South Africa to continue their FIFA World Cup qualifying campaign.
The match, which is a replay of the two sides’ semi-final Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON 2024) match, will take place on June 2 at the Godswill Akpabio International Stadium in Uyo.
