The head coach of the South Africa national team, Hugo Broos says his side is motivated and focused ahead of the meeting with Zimbabwe later tonight.

With Ghana dropping points in Group G of the Africa qualifiers for the 2022 FIFA World Cup, the Bafana Bafana are in firm control of the group.

Knowing that a win against Zimbabwe this evening will enhance South Africa’s chances of progressing to the next stage of the qualifiers, Hugo Broos says his side is booming with confidence.

“I'm very sure that the focus will 100 percent be on Zimbabwe and they will go for it until the 90th minute.

“Then we'll have just one game until the next round. That doesn't mean we'll be in Qatar, but we will definitely be in the next round,” the gaffer said in a pre-match interview.

Coach Hugo Broos added, “I don't think there can be more motivation for a player than qualifying for a World Cup, so not hard for me to keep the players focused.

“The players are ambitious and they know that if we succeed, they'll be at the World Cup and everyone will be there watching them.”

The game between South Africa and Zimbabwe kicks off at 19:00GMT today.
