Bafana Bafana coach Hugo Broos caused a stir when he left out Chiefs players during his Afcon squad selection. Mamelodi Sundowns and Orlando Pirates players dominated Broos squad and the Belgian mentor immediately gave his reasons why he went with certain players who were either off form or lacked game time.

In September, the Bafana coach faced a backlash after he left out Kaizer Chiefs players from his  23-man squad.

At the time, Broos said Amakhosi players were not good enough to play for the national team.

“I think I’m too straight, I tell the things how they are. I don’t like to say it’s grey when it’s white or black, for me it’s black or white. What I feel is the truth but they don’t accept it,” Broos told SABC last year.

“For example when I spoke about the players of Chiefs, everyone is angry because I said that but it is like that, Chiefs don’t play good at the moment. So what did I say wrong?” Broos added.
