South African coach, Ephraim
‘Shakes’ Mashaba, said his team has one aim at the Nest of Champions in Uyo,
Akwa Ibom State and that his to break the jinx of not bating Nigeria in any
competitive match.
South Africa have already qualified
and Nigeria need to win to book their place in the 2015 African Cup of Nations.
But Mashaba indicated that they will not hand Nigeria any favour in the crucial
AFCON qualifiers.
“Nigerians don’t want to lose
against South Africa. That alone will make this match a tough one and we also
have the assignment to break the hoodoo that we always lose when we play
against them,” Mashaba said before the Bafana Bafana left South Africa.
“We have to go out there positive
and believe we will do well. We are defending well but there are still some
things we need to do, especially in the middle of the park where we are not
picking opponents tight and that will cause us problems especially against a
team like Nigeria which is very good in that area.”
