“We are not underestimating Cape Verde. They are not the same team like Morocco, with high quality players at big teams in Europe. But from what I have seen.” Bafana coach Hugo Broos told Citizen.

“They are a team on the pitch, their players are very disciplined and it is very difficult to play against them. Tomorrow we have to achieve our best level again if we want to be in the semifinals.

“It is normal to little by little start dreaming of the final, but it would be a very big mistake to think that after Morocco everything will be easier.

“If we want to compare that Bafana game on Saturday (against Cape Verde) to the game on Tuesday (against Morocco). There is no difference, it will be as tough as Tuesday.”
