South Africans’ spirits are high after Bafana Bafana’s win and quarterfinal qualification on Tuesday at the Africa Cup of Nations.
Like other sports fanatics, rugby star Siya Kolisi took to social media to celebrate the team’s victory over Morocco.
In a hilarious video that he shared on Instagram, Siya is in high spirits, telling his kids about Bafana Bafana’s victory, but they are not as hyped up.
“Yho, ama2000 don’t know what we know about @bafanabafanarsa, but they will find out,” he wrote, captioning the video.
Fans and other celebrities like Boity, Maps Maponyane, Zizo Tshwete, and others have since reacted to the video.
“The way these kids are so unfazed by our Captain is the funniest thing. Do they even know how lucky they are to have him every day huh? I mean the man is the greatest in our Country! Nee man julle man,” one comment read.
Another one said: “You can take the man out of South Africa, but you can’t take South Africa out of the man.”
