YEAH, Bafana Bafana off to the Afcon 2024 finals in Ivory Coast, shooo!
This follows their 2-1 hard win against Liberia in Monrovia on Tuesday afternoon.
After huffing and puffing by the visiting Bafana, goals from strikers Zakhele Lepasa and Mihlali Mayambela ensured the team progresses to the finals in 2024.
The coach Hugo Broos side new failing to qualify for the finals by not winning in Monrovia on Tuesday as the head-to-head rule would count against them.
Liberians scored through William Jebor in the first half.
Bafana are position two on the Group K log after Morroco who are leading the group with six points after back to back wins.
They qualified for Afcon 2023 finals, finally!
Bafana face Morocco in June to wrap up the log.
“It’s difficult to express my feelings. There are 100 feelings that are going through my body (at the moment),” Broos told the Safa media department after the game.
“It was a very tough game. We knew the style of Liberia was power play, long balls to the front, then headers and powerful duels. Therefore, we changed some players in our team,” says Broos who booked his team to the 2024 Afcon finals.
The last time Bafana qualified for the finals was in 2019.
A win is still a win, no matter how bad it looks!
