We need to continue building – Broos
“It’s important that we go on from what we achieve in the Afcon. It’s not enough to be in third place and become 10th in the CAF rankings for two to three months only and then we are back in number 13,” Bafana coach Hugo Broos told IOL.
“Therefore we have to go on now and try to get good results because we have to try to get better places in the rankings. We can also only do it with results.
“Friendly games are becoming very important. So we will try to get good results in those two because we can win points and get a better position in the CAF ranking.”
“We also have some new players, younger players with us. I hope that maybe they can show me that I can count on them for the next months, for the qualifiers for the World Cup and Afcon,” the Bafana coach added.
“And that maybe little by little, we can put those players in the team. That’s what we want to do in the next few months, besides to qualify for Afcon and World Cup.”
