Bafana Bafana coach Hugo Broos admits its going to be a “very difficult” game when they take on South Sudan in their next Africa Cup of Nations qualifier on Tuesday afternoon.

South Africa will come into this fixture after playing out to a 2-2 draw against Uganda in their last Group K encounter at the Orlando Stadium this past weekend.

South Sudan, meanwhile, enter this clash off the back of a 1-0 defeat to Congo in their last Group K encounter at the Stade Alphonse Massamba-Debat last Thursday.

Broos’ men currently occupy third place on the Group K standings with one points from their first game followed by South Sudan in fourth place with zero points after one match.

“We know that South Sudan are an aggressive team, and I don’t mean in a negative manner, and they are very dedicated,” Broos said.

“Also, the match will be played on a synthetic pitch, and it will not be easy. So, I expect a very difficult game tomorrow.”
