AFCON 2023: South Africa ready for Super Eagles battle — Broos

South Africa head coach, Hugo Broos has said his team is battle-ready for the semi-final clash with the Super Eagles of Nigeria.

The Bafana Bafana earned a place in the last four after defeating Cape Verde 2-1 on penalties on Saturday night.

Goalkeeper, Rowen Williams was the hero as he saved four spot kicks.

There was a lot of pressure in the match. Everyone wanted to qualify. This match was unlike the previous ones. We did not show the same performance as we had in previous matches,” Broos said after the game.

“The semi-final match will be different against Nigeria, which has good players like Lookman. We will not lose focus. The players will be in good condition, so we need to rest and recover to start our preparation”.

The encounter will take place at the Stade de la Paix, Bouake on Wednesday.
