After the draw obtained against Algeria for their first 2024 Chan match, South Africa faces Guinea on Monday under 2:00 p.m.
South African coach Molefi Ntseki quickly stressed that it was a second opportunity for his team. A chance to transform a respectable opening result into a springboard for qualification when they face Guinea during the Totalnergies African Nations Championship on Monday.
“The first game was a real moment of relaxation and we achieved our goal. Our performance was up to par and resulted in the result obtained in the face of a solid team. We are now fourth in the group, with only one point, and we know that we have to surpass ourselves in the next match. “”
Ntseki is perfectly aware of the margins in a group which he describes as “Very competitive, with well -prepared teams”. He knows that only a high -level performance will be enough to win the victory that his team needs.
South Africa arrives with a single point after its 1-1 opening match against Algeria, while Guinea is still in shock from a 3-0 defeat against Uganda.
While Uganda and Algeria dominate the classification, the meeting on Monday promises to be a survival fight, which will be as much dictated by mental steel as by the tactical sense
