Manqoba Mngqithi Looking For Positive End to the Season! The Brazilians are on the verge of winning the league title this afternoon.
Mamelodi Sundowns host SuperSport United in the DSTV Premiership this afternoon. Manqoba Mngqithi is keen on all three points as that would guarantee the league title for this campaign.
Bafana Ba Style has been knocked out of the CAF Champions League. This follows exits in the MTN 8 and Nedbank Cup, to lesser opposition in these domestic cups.
The only trophy left up for grabs is the DSTV Premiership, which is in their grasp now.
“We’re not looking to put a lot of pressure on the players to look at this game as a title decider, we still want them to give the same energy even in the next three matches because for us it is very important to win every match that we play and to try and achieve our targets.” Mngqithi tells the club’s media department.
The head coach is adamant that they play in cycles of 5 matches. So, it is important to win this match to maintain their cycle, and less about clinching the league title.
“According to our process this is the second match of the last cycle of five games, we have won the first one [and now] all our attention is on trying to make sure that we achieve our desired targets in the last four matches. It just happens that SuperSport can decide the championship but the intention is to try and get the number of points that we have targeted, as it is now we are short of nine points in this cycle.
The last time these two sides met each other it ended in a 0-0 stalemate at the Lucas Moripe Stadium in Atteridgeville. At the time, both teams were fighting for the league title.
“They are showing very good signs, they are a decent team. [Bradley] Grobler is still the top goal scorer, [Sipho] Mbule has had a wonderful season, SuperSport scores a lot of goals from crosses and from outside the box.
“We know very well [that] we are not playing a team that is a push-over. Ronwen Williams has come back again and now they are looking like a team that really wants to launch a potential comeback, and that makes this game very important for both teams.” The coach concluded.
