'Bafana is a good team,' says Morocco coach Walid Regragui ahead of Afcon qualifier: Morocco coach Walid Regragui is expecting a tough encounter from a “good” Bafana Bafana team in their Africa Cup of Nations (Afcon) qualifier at FNB Stadium on Saturday…
Both teams have qualified for the Afcon tournament in the Ivory Coast next year and are using this match as part of their preparations for the continental showpiece.
“I Know Bafana is a good team with a good coach, I know he wants to win at home because every team now want to beat Morocco in Africa. But we will try to do our best here in Johannesburg.“This game is not going to be easy for my team because we trained only for two days together. Some players have come back from the final of Uefa Conference League and some finished the season about a month ago.
“I have a lot of players who are tired from a long season, some have played about 50 games, including the World Cup with so much emotion. Everybody wants to go on holiday but the job is not done yet and we need to do our best to get the three points and show that we are a big team in Africa.”
