Bafana Bafana not sweating over France

Bafana Bafana have been enjoying themselves ahead of their much-anticipated clash against France. Here's a look at what Hugo Broos and his men have been up to! 

A rare occasion 

The national team rarely goes anywhere beyond Africa during the international breaks as it is perhaps not SAFA's forte to organise friendly matches against the world's elite football nations.  

However, those who would have been hoping to see Kylian Mbappe come up against South Africa can now feel that their prayers have been answered as those in charge have finally made it happen. 

Scroll through the gallery above to see how Bafana Bafana has been spending time off the pitch during their France trip 

Team spirit 

We can imagine the team's spirit is high, although maybe a few nerves may be creeping in given that their opponents are the reigning world champions. 

Whichever may be the case, the group looks to be in a relaxed mood as some of them, including Broos have been playing some pool (or snooker) with each other in what appears to be their temporary clubhouse. 

The big task 

It is important that the players are in a good or calm state of mind heading into that encounter and they will know all about it given that they are top professionals themselves. 

It is fair to say that not many expect the 1996 African champions to beat the third-ranked side in the world, however, their record against Les Bleus is decent since they beat them in Mangaung during the 2010 FIFA World Cup. 

Your thoughts, please? 

What's your score prediction between the two sides?
