The head coach of South Africa, Hugo Boos has set his sighting on leading the Bafana Bafana to finish third at the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations (AFCON) tournament.
South Africa takes on DR Congo on Saturday, February 10, in the third-place match of the tournament before the final on Sunday.
Ahead of the third-place match, Coach Hugo Broos says his Bafana Bafana side would need to be mentally strong to get the victory.
“We played a very good game against Nigeria. It was a great performance and we showed that we are a great team again. When you exit after 120 minutes, it’s always a huge disappointment. When you play so good, the disappointment is so big. The game tomorrow is special. It depends a bit on which team will be mentally recovered because also for DRC, it was difficult to lose like that,” Coach Hugo Broos said.
The third-place match between South Africa and DR Congo is scheduled to kick off at 8 pm at Felix Houphouet-Boigny.
