Mamelodi Sundowns utility player Thapelo Morena says they are fully aware they can expect a hostile reception from CR Belouizdad supporters at the Nelson Mandela Stadium in Algiers on Saturday night.
The Brazilians take on the on-form Algerian side in the first leg of their Champions League quarterfinal clash where they will be seeking a win that will give them the advantage in this two-legged tie.To bag all three away points, Sundowns will have to overcome a recent stuttering form where they drew with Cape Town City, Swallows and Golden Arrows in the DStv Premiership and were eliminated from the Nedbank Cup by Stellenbosch.
”Morena, who has been used in different positions by Sundowns coaches over the past few seasons, said the strong home support is going to make it difficult for them but they have been in this situation before.“We know that the support from the passionate supporters is going to make it a little bit difficult for us to play our normal football but I trust and believe in my teammates.“I believe in my teammates that on Saturday we are all going to lift our hands and deliver for our team.
