Broos Backs Continuity as South Africa Host Panama Again After 1-1 Draw

Broos signals limited rotation to fine-tune choices before the World Cup.

Overview

  • Bafana Bafana, following Friday's 1-1 draw in Durban, prepare for Tuesday's rematch in Cape Town with Hugo Broos saying there will not be many changes.
  • The head coach reported a fully fit 23-man squad for the Cape Town game and said preparation for June takes priority over resting club-regulars.
  • Veteran playmaker Themba Zwane returned from injury with a 55‑minute outing and, if he stays fit, Broos says he will be in the World Cup plans.
  • Strong showings from Oswin Appollis and defender Khulumani Ndamane have intensified competition for places, while Broos says roughly 75% of his World Cup squad is already decided.
  • SABC Sports will broadcast the Cape Town match live on SABC 3, putting team selections and fringe players' minutes under a national spotlight.
