Bafana Bafan Coach says No Slowing Down against Super Eagles despite Qualification
Head coach of the Bafana Bafana, Shakes Mashaba, has reiterated the team’s determination to give the Super Eagles a tough time in the next AFCON qualifiers game.
Mashaba said that the South Africans have no intention of slowing down against Nigeria in their final group qualifier on Wednesday although they have secured a spot in Equatorial Guinea for the 2015 African Nations Cup after a 2-1 win over Sudan at Moses Mabhida Stadium on Saturday.
He said; “I would like to say congratulations to the players, [but] we are still left with one game, against Nigeria. I know people will think it is going to be a walkover; no, we are going to put out our best team. It is more than three points at stake when we go to Nigeria.
“It’s going to be another tough game like the one we played today, which many thought was going to be easy. Thanks to all the supporters, their presence helped us conquer.”
