CAPW TOWN – Bafana Bafana coach Hugo Broos has named the team that will play two 2026 FIFA World Cup qualifiers against Lesotho and Nigeria next month.
The South African senior men’s team will face Lesotho away from home at the Free State Stadium on Friday, 5 September 2025 and then host Nigeria at the same venue on Tuesday, 9 September 2025.
The team will go into camp in Johannesburg on Monday, 1 September 2025.
“You know when you can go to the World Cup, is there a better motivation than that?,” said Broos safa.net.
“Maybe if we go to the World Cup it will be the first and maybe the last time for all those players. Qualifying for the World Cup is extremely, extremely difficult, certainly here in Africa.”
