South Africa coach Hugo Broos blasts lack of ‘AFCON vibe’ at Africa Cup in Morocco | Football News

Published by Webster

South Africa coach Hugo Broos isn’t getting that usual Africa Cup of Nations feeling in Morocco. Broos, who led Cameroon to the title in 2017 in Gabon and took South Africa to third place at the 2023 edition in Ivory Coast, said Sunday there was a lack of enthusiasm for the 35th Africa Cup. “In the Ivory Coast and in Gabon, every second of the tournament you felt that you were in a tournament,” Broos said. “The people were – when we went with the bus to train – the people were waving and they were with flags, and here you see nothing. So, I don’t know, but yeah, there is no vibe, there is no typical AFCON vibe. I don’t feel it here.” The Belgian coach was speaking in Marrakech ahead of South Africa’s final group game against Zimbabwe on Monday. The Bafana Bafana opened with a hard-fought 2-1 win over Angola in Marrakech and then lost 1-0 to Egypt in Agadir. Egypt is already through to the last 16 from Group B with …

File image of Hugo Orlando Gatti© X (Twitter) Hugo Orlando Gatti, a legendary Argentine goalkeeper and former star of the national team, died Sunday at the age of 80, the South American Football Confederation said. Gatti was hospitalized two months ago for a broken hip but developed pneumonia, kidney and heart trouble and in the end was sedated as his health faded. News reports said his family on Sunday decided to take him off life support. Gatti — whose nickname was ‘El Loco,’ or the mad man — held the record for most number of games played in Argentina’s top football division, with 765. He played from 1962 to 1988. At age 44 he was still in the starting lineup for regional footballing giants Boca Juniors. Gatti was famously extroverted and one of the first goalkeepers to make a habit of coming out of the six-yard box into the larger area in front of him. Gatti was outspoken and once called the football legend Diego Maradona “gordito,” or chubby. Days later Maradona exacted …

‘Hunger Is Big’ In South Africa Squad To Reach AFCON Final, Says Hugo Broos

Published by Webster

South Africa coach Hugo Broos said his team’s Africa Cup of Nations campaign must already be considered a success after they reached the last four on Saturday, but the veteran Belgian insisted “the hunger is big” to go all the way to the final. Bafana Bafana beat Cape Verde 2-1 on penalties in the last eight after a goalless 120 minutes in Ivorian capital Yamoussoukro, with goalkeeper and captain Ronwen Williams producing a remarkable four saves in the shoot-out. “Let’s say six hours ago I was 71, now I am 75. It was a very stressful game, certainly with penalties,” admitted Broos. South Africa are now into their first Cup of Nations semi-final since 2000 and will face much-fancied Nigeria on Wednesday. “Today I saw and felt that my players were really nervous. There was a lot of pressure because everyone wanted to qualify for the semi-finals, and we didn’t play like in our previous matches,” admitted Broos, whose team had beaten Morocco 2-0 against the odds in the last 16. They will …

Meet Hugo Calderano, the Brazilian vegetarian table tennis star who speaks seven languages and can solve a Rubik’s Cube in nine seconds | Sport-others News

Published by Webster

He speaks seven languages, can solve a Rubik’s Cube in nine seconds on average, and can name the capital of every country. Brazilian 27-year-old Hugo Calderano may be a mental wizard now but at the age of 13, he had to make a potentially life-altering decision. With his parents being physical education teachers, he was into various sports but excelled at two – volleyball and table tennis. They backed him to become a professional athlete, but asked him to pick one sport and focus on it. Being Brazilian, they perhaps thought he would pick volleyball, the country’s second-most popular sport after football. After all, he had participated in regular competitions and was even drafted into the state team while on the other hand, there weren’t too many top Brazilian star paddlers he could look up to. However, even at the age of 13, Hugo wasn’t afraid to take the path less taken. He chose table tennis and decided to devote his life to it. His parents, though apprehensive, weren’t too worried about it. They trusted …
