HUGO Broos has admitted that Bafana Bafana will have a target on their back at the upcoming Africa Cup of Nations, thanks to their impressive showing at the previous edition of the biennial continental showpiece.
South Africa's senior national team defied the odds by finishing in third place in the Ivory Coast two years ago and will now go to Morocco next month among the favourites to win the title.
The Belgian takes his squad into their final preparations with a friendly international against Zambia in Gqeberha at the weekend, intent on sending a message to their opponents.
