Bafana's Broos unfazed by quick AFCON turnaround ahead of must-win Zimbabwe clash
Bafana Bafana must avoid defeat against Zimbabwe to advance in AFCON 2025 after winning one and losing one in the group stage, coach Hugo Broos said.

- After beating Angola 2-1 and losing 1-0 to Egypt, Bafana Bafana must get a positive result to progress, with a win securing qualification as runners-up to Egypt.

- After a brief trip to Agadir, Bafana Bafana returned to Marrakech, and South Africa head coach Hugo Broos urged the team to forget Egypt and be ready to beat Zimbabwe on Monday.
