There are many supporters of Bafana Bafana who feel that playing Mauritius‚ Lesotho or even Botswana is 'beneath them’‚ and of no interest or value for the national side.That is where the arrogance comes in.It is nice to have‚ and a goal for all teams to strive towards‚ but the tournament was set up to help develop football in the region and in this regard there can be no argument that it has been a success.
It is no coincidence that the level of Southern African teams‚ and their competitiveness on the continent‚ has improved since the Cosafa Cup has been played regularly again in the last five years. Some of the best referees on the continent come from the Southern African region and all‚ including Victor Gomes‚ cut their teeth at this level in the Cosafa Cup.
But are we saying that we don’t care about football in Lesotho‚ Eswatini‚ Botswana‚ Madagascar‚ Mauritius etc? There will be six Cosafa tournaments in the various age-groups this year – senior men and women‚ as well as boys and girls competitions at both Under-17 and Under-20.
Empty pride SA football ain't shit it's just that their media o tshwana le wa England they just hype their players and staff
Arrogance mxcm
South Africans football fans have always been arrogant...but you look at their team and the performances you ask yourself what's the hype🤔🤦

Is much better for the Ladies National Team coz as for our guys we know that they will be eliminated at group stages....with 3 points beating Namibia only Applause to SAFA_net for the good heart shown to Banyana, but I would like to say that we shouldn't compare ladies and gents football as it is a different ballgame (figuratively speaking). Banyana might be good but never put a measure of comparison to Bafana. SasolSA nice
