Broos to go all out against Algeria? Major changes confirmed
Head coach Hugo Broos has confirmed that he will be putting out his ‘best team’ when Bafana Bafana take on Algeria on Tuesday evening.
South Africa was held to a disappointing 1-1 draw last Thursday evening in Algiers as Elias Mokwana’s equaliser cancelled out Ricard Betrui's opener for Andorra.

Broos had used the encounter to experiment with new selections as Khanyisa Mayo, Mokwana, Tapelo Xoki and Patrick Maswanganyi were among the new faces in action for the national team.
Heading to what promises to be a much tougher encounter against The Desert Warriors on Tuesday, Broos has insisted that the time for experiments is over.
"There will be a lot of changes because I looked a little bit at both games and I think it was the best opportunity for those young guys to play last Thursday," he told SAFA media ahead of the clash against Algeria.
"It was not such a difficult opponent (Andorra) even though the game was difficult. But if you compare Andorra with Algeria, there is a lot of difference in quality, so we need to put our best team (out) on Tuesday and we can’t afford ourselves to do experiments again.

"It will be a totally different team. Also, players who didn’t play on Thursday, will not be tired or whatever, they will be fresh to play that game and we will need that."
South Africa's game against Algeria will kick off at 23:00.
