Broos says he expects his players to be up for the challenge despite the long journey.

Bafana Bafana coach Hugo Broos says he expects his players to be up for the challenge, despite the long travel time the team had to endure to get to the capital of Algeria, Algiers.Broos says the squad only arrived in Algiers, 30 hours after leaving South Africa.

But Broos says he believes his players will be up for the challenge, despite the limited time they had to prepare for Thursday’s match against Andorra. The project is aimed at facilitating inter-confederation friendlies, something that will offer the so-called smaller countries in world football an opportunity to face countries from different confederations.

“I think it’s very important to go on with what we achieved in the Afcon. It’s not enough to be in 3rd place and 10th now in the CAF ranking and then in three months, we are again number 13. I don’t think that’s what we have to do so we have to go on now and try good results and try maybe to have a better place in the ranking,” Broos elaborates.
