Bafana Bafana head coach Hugo Broos has called on supporters to turn out in numbers to back South Africa when they face Panama.

South Africa will host Panama at the Moses Mabhida Stadium and DHL Stadium later this month.

The first friendly is scheduled to take place at the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban on Friday, 27 March.

Bafana will then travel to Cape Town to face the same opponents at the DHL Stadium for their second match on Tuesday, 31 March 2026.

The Belgian tactician believes strong crowds in cities like Durban and Cape Town can inspire the players to raise their performances and deliver positive results.

“Come to the stadium and support us. You saw what it means for the players when the supporters are there, and there is a good crowd at the stadium,” said Broos.

“The players do more when there is a difficult moment in the game, or when we play a difficult game (and a passionate crowd offers support in numbers).

“Just come to the stadiums, come to Durban, come to Cape Town and support us, and then it will be easier for us to deliver good performances.”
