Themba Zwane of Mamelodi Sundowns is challenged by To Carneiro of Petro Atletico in the Caf Champions League quarterfinal first leg match at the 11 November Stadium in Luanda, Angola on April 16 2022.A bullish Mamelodi Sundowns coach Rulani Mokwena has made a brave proclamation that the Brazilians will be in the Caf Champions League semifinals.
Sundowns lost the VAR-influenced first leg of their Champions League quarterfinal clash to capable Angolan side Petro Atletico 2-1 at the Estádio 11 de Novembro in Luanda on Saturday night. Though they managed the all-important away goal, Sundowns have it all to do in the return match at FNB Stadium on Saturday, where Mokwena insisted the Brazilians will be capable of producing a goal.
“We were a bit unfortunate with the goal that was disallowed through VAR but we are OK to go to Johannesburg with a 2-1 scoreline and we take the away goal. We can definitely score and I think Petro also know there is a goal in [Johannesburg],” Mokwena said. “I am reminded of something Liverpool coach Jürgen Klopp once said to me when I visited Melwood [Liverpool's previous training grounds], and I never thought I would use it because I am coach who wants to win every single match.
