Relebohile Mofokeng has disclosed what Hugo Broos told him to do when he was introduced in Bafana Bafana's clash against Czechia last night.

Mofokeng came in the second half as the national side was trailing by a goal down and he replaced Oswin Appollis at the Mercedes Benz Stadium.

“The coach’s instructions was that I must play behind the defensive midfielders, because there was space there,” Mofokeng told SABC Sport.

“First half, I think the gents did very well to find the spaces, but yeah, I think we needed more attacks. We did very well in the second half to attack them, to give them pressure. So I think, yeah, we did very well.

“Obviously, my, it is my first World Cup, my first game. So the coach just told me to be confident, to believe in myself. He told me that he believes in me, so I must believe in myself.

“The game was very difficult, because obviously this is the biggest stage. I think, yeah, you just need confidence, and you need to believe in yourself.

“So the coach just said, I must play, I must be myself, and just do my best.”
