Cairo — Bafana Bafana’s performance at the 2019 Africa Cup of Nations has given hope for the national team’s future‚ SA Football Association president Danny Jordaan says.
Coach Stuart Baxter’s ultra-defensive tactics in the group stage were criticised as Bafana scraped through as the fourth-best third-placed finishers with 1-0 defeats against Ivory Coast and Morocco and a 1-0 victory over Namibia. “In 2017 we didn’t qualify. And now in 2019 we qualified. And so I think there was a low expectation of the performance of the team. This tournament has delivered to a great extent a team that showed they could play against the best.
“The standout performance of course was against Egypt in a stadium packed with more than 70‚000 Egyptian fans‚ and against a team that came off three consecutive victories in the group stages‚” the Safa president said.
