THE BIG DEBATE | FIFA World Cup 2026: The case for believing and not believing in Bafana

After a 2-0 loss to Mexico, South Africa's Bafana Bafana, coached by Hugo Broos, must beat the Czech Republic to keep their 2026 World Cup hopes alive. Broos' defensive formation (five natural defenders plus two defensive midfielders) has been criticized, and two red cards against Mexico complicate the task. Journalists Smiso Msomi and Mihlali Baleka debate the chances of Bafana winning or losing.
