The international friendly between France and Bafana taught us a lot of lessons. It has opened our eyes to a lot of things.
It showed us that there is no short cuts in life. In 2010 “Bafana” manage to win against Frances in the world cup for them to lose by 5-0 on Tuesday it shows that they worked hard to ensure that there is development and progress on their side unlike “Bafana”.
However it shows that “Bafana” has went backwards many times. It took some time for Spain and Germany to build theirs teams. It takes plannings and hard work for Frances to get to were they are.
Many football fans were quite upset with “Bafana” that they did not take the match serious like France did.
France manage to rest some star players for “Bafana’s game which includes the likes of Mbape to show how serious they were. Fans Packed the stadium to show how serious they were.
Many were expecting a lose but they did not expect an an embarrasing score line like this, as it is eleven against eleven at the end of the day.
Many fans were very upset that after losing with such a big margin players had the nerve to take selfies with French players. It was as if they could not wait for the final whistle. Instead of focus on the match untill the end, all they had in their minds was a selfie with Pogba.
To show that they were not focus Frances manage to scores their last goal during extra time after ninety minutes.
It did not feel like France were sweating. It felt like a training ground for them. Some of the fans felt like France goalkeeper was on holiday.
He was hardly troubled by our attackers. Our front 3 spend a lot of time defending instead of attacking. Whenever they tried to attack the space was closed.
For Ronwen Williams to make around 11 saves, it was quite scary after learning that we lost 5-0. They could have scored more goals.
