Everything will be decided on the pitch.

The Bafana head coach approaches the match with a calm mindset.

Details: At the pre-match press conference, Bafana Bafana head coach Hugo Broos discussed their chances of winning and the impact of Victor Osimhen’s absence from the Nigerian team.

“We have injuries too, and Osimhen is a talented striker. However, I believe the Nigerian coach has many options to fill his spot. After the game against Lesotho, I mentioned that we did great work on the mental side because it’s challenging to play amidst the noise in the media.

This shows that the team is mentally strong, which will be vital on Tuesday. We believe in ourselves and are confident about beating Nigeria.

We have a chance to win. We can beat Nigeria, but from my experience in football, nothing is certain because Nigeria is also a very strong team,” Broos stated.

The match between South Africa and Nigeria will take place this evening at Toyota Stadium in Bloemfontein, which has a capacity of 46,000. This match is crucial for Bafana’s hopes of qualifying for the World Cup, attracting significant attention.
