Bafana Bafana of South Africa head coach, Hugo Broos has charged the national team players to remain focused and be optimistic about winning against Morocco in the group stages of the 2023 African Cup of Nations.
According to the coach, South Africa can be the first in the group after the group stage if only his abled men thrash over the North African side.
Hugo Broos was, however, optimistic the Bafana Bafana team can beat their Zimbabwean counterpart, after winning against them in the World Cup qualifiers last year.
Despite underrating the Liberian national team as the weakest among the group, he still thinks it is always dangerous to underestimate an opponent.
He stated: “If we want to be first in the group, we have to beat Morocco. We played against Zimbabwe in the World Cup qualifiers last year and we know them very well. Morocco is a tough team but this is the team we have to beat. We are better than a few months ago, and I think if we can beat them twice it will be very good for us. Liberia are a team I don’t know, and I don’t know their players, so it is up to us to look for videos of their recent matches. Maybe they are the weakest team in the group but it is always dangerous to underestimate an opponent.”
