Hugo Broos followed a familiar pattern among Bafana Bafana coaches after his team’s 1-0 World Cup qualifying win against Zimbabwe of being confused about the mathematical permutations SA will need in their final game away against Ghana on Sunday.
Broos continued his exceptional job steering a young Bafana, with many front-line players omitted as he builds towards the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations, to the verge of the final round of Qatar 2022 World Cup qualifying on Thursday night. Bafana went to an unheard of fourth successive qualifying win at FNB Stadium.
But Broos had the wrong impression at the end of the game that SA could go to Cape Coast and lose against Ghana, initially, he suggested, by two goals, and later by one. Broos, even though he appeared to believe Ghana needed a 3-0 win, did at least stress that playing for a draw was not an option, and that Bafana have to be positive in Cape Coast.
