No mercy for former employers as Broos prepares Bafana for decisive clash

Speaking during the pre-match press conference at the Main Media Centre in Rabat, Morocco, this afternoon, Broos, who won the 2017 AFCON title with the Indomitable Lions in Gabon, says this game means a lot to him and his team as he continues with his good run at the AFCON...

"It's a special game for me as you know I won the AFCON with our opponent of tomorrow, although there aren't too many of the same players in their current team.

"Tomorrow, I can't have mercy with them although our achievement together holds a special place in my heart."

Broos says they will have to be at their best tomorrow to beat them...

"It's a young team with talented players, and they have good fighting spirit, which means we have to achieve our best level tomorrow."

Meanwhile, Broos has also complained about their training base in Rabat, which he says is 45 minutes away from their hotel.

Most of the teams in Rabat are training at the Mohamed VI Football Complex, which is the Moroccan team’s base and also the headquarters of the Royal Moroccan Football Federation.
