Bafana Bafana coach Hugo Broos.

Bafana Bafana coach Hugo Broos is taking all the criticism coming his way in his stride, ahead of the crucial Fifa World Cup Group 1 clash against the Czech Republic on Thursday.

There has been heavy fallout, particularly on social media, after Bafana’s lacklustre performance in the opening 2-0 defeat to hosts Mexico last week.

Broos bore the majority of the fallout due to his defensive 3-5-2 formation that saw Bafana’s two strikers isolated up front.

He has now been called on to be more adventurous against the European nation, but the 74-year-old experienced mentor is not listening to all the outside noise and has adopted a philosophical attitude to deal with the increasing pressure.
