Bafana Bafana fans slam Broos for ignoring Mamelodi Sundowns stars Jali and Zwane
Bafana Bafana were heavily beaten 5-0 by France in an international friendly match in Lille on Tuesday.
It was a difficult evening for coach Hugo Broos and his men as the gulf in experience between them and the world champions was glaringly exposed.
Bafana now return home and hope the thumping will not sap their confidence ahead of the 2023 Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.
Many fans have been unforgiving on Twitter with Broos the most targeted.
We don't have a team here under Hugo Broos

I think it's time coaches Steve Komphela, Rulani Mokwena and Manqoba Mngqithi all go to Bafana Bafana together and restore our national pride.

If you know football and you're honest,you'll understand that it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know that Mamelodi Sundowns FC players must dominate Bafana Bafana but we have Hugo Broos who thinks he knows better but in actual fact he's just another glorified plumber!!

Bafana Bafana doesn't deserve this useless individual old madala called Hugo Broos. As for Safa leadership, they must resign all of them immediately. 🤮 pic.twitter.com/fokFJvwKIc

Mina I placed Hugo Broos on fraud watch when he said Monare is his kind of a player pic.twitter.com/h18mq3E1gv

Everyone at SAFA should be fired & the Bafana Bafana team should be Put on Gumtree and see how much we can at least get for these okes. Bafana Bafana is just a waste of state resource. That Plumber Hugo Broos & Danny Jordann should be fired at the same time.

Then the fans were divided on Thabang Monare's contribution.
The Orlando Pirates star's inclusion in the Bafana squad had been the subject of debate before the France game.
Monare was the best player on the field for SA https://t.co/9rJs2PtaNB

Young team with Monare no Xulu...this coach is delusional https://t.co/PG2ptPqyqz

Losing to France is not a big deal, but the kind of football we are playing is a concern. You choose Mvala, Monare over Zungu and expect the national team to play football?

As for Thabang Monare I don't want to talk to much about him , the quiet, the better 🙄 pic.twitter.com/c75ORmcgdn

Monare shouldn't be playing for Bafana if we keep it 💯

Stop blaming Monare, Mvala was horrible last night. Monare had a good game than him. https://t.co/xt8pXtw9Ni

We understand Monare, you are not used to high level football❤️

While Bafana's defeat by France angered most fans, some found humour in the hammering.
They couldn't help but give it to destroyer-in-chief Kylian Mbappe.
They couldn't wait for the match to end so that they can take selfies😂😂😂😂Our Bafana Bafana❤🇿🇦

France beat us like they did because they were offended by the crappy Le Coq Sportif kits we were wearing. Their brand was insulted. Apparently Mbappé was shown the video that launched the jersey and that's why he played like he did.

France didn’t get the brief, we said “friendly”. Friendly Mbappe 🤷🏿♂️
