‘It's only halftime,’ Sundowns coach Mokwena reminds players ahead of second leg showdown with Wydad: Mamelodi Sundowns coach Rulani Mokwena had nothing but praise for his charges for a gallant performance as they earned a credible 0-0 Champions League…
There are those who believe Sundowns have a significant advantage because the second leg is at Loftus on Saturday but Mokwena said it is only halftime.“Never, it is the Champions League and against a good team with good players, we still have to play another 90 minutes. We know it is only halftime, we will keep our feet firmly on the ground, we will still focus on the second leg in Pretoria.
“We know that we will have the ammunition behind us and we will have the stadium that now knows to play the Champions League. The players are more experienced in playing these difficult matches and we trust them to be able to continue to be at service and to give the best that they can.“They always do that because they are an honest group of players. A lot of credit to them and to the technical team for the hard work in preparations during the week.
