Coach Broos proud of Bafana's performance: 'Not only the win, also the way we won'

Bafana Bafana head coach Hugo Broos was delighted with his side's performance as they came back from a goal down to dispatch Mozambique 2-1 at Mbombela Stadium on Thursday evening.

"We dominated and played good football, sometimes one-touch football. We had 10 chances all game and I
