South Africa’s head coach unhappy with pitch conditions ahead of Nigeria clash
The South African national team is set to face Nigeria, but ahead of the match Bafana Bafana’s head coach voiced his dissatisfaction with the state of the pitch where they are scheduled to play.
Details: Ahead of the game, Hugo Broos declared that it was nonsense and there was no justification for staging the match at this particular stadium.
Quote: “It’s nonsense. The pitch does not meet our standards. It’s not in good condition, and there’s no reason to play here against Nigeria, as the field simply doesn’t meet the requirements. It’s nonsense,” said the Bafana Bafana manager.
The match against Nigeria will take place on Tuesday, September 9, kicking off at 18:00 CET, at Toyota Stadium in Bloemfontein.
