Rulani Mokwena Wants to Remain Humble After Beating Al Ahly In Egypt!

Rulani Mokwena Wants to Remain Humble After Beating Al Ahly In Egypt! The Brazilians got the better of the African champions on the weekend.

Mamelodi Sundowns defeated Al Ahly 1-0 in the CAF Champions League on Saturday night. Co-coach Rulani Mokwena does not want to get too carried away with the victory.

Thapelo Morena scored the only goal of the game in the 82^nd minute of the match to steal victory. This was a result of one of very few attacks they had in the game.

They face TS Galaxy and Maritzburg United in consecutive DSTV Premiership matches. So, they cannot keep their heads in the clouds for too long.

“It’s an important part of history because we haven’t won in Cairo in the last five outings, so it was the sixth time lucky. We hadn’t scored in Cairo.” Mokwena said to the media after the win.

“So, you kick two buckets with one stone.

“You can then be in a position to celebrate the little bit of the landmark and the achievement and try to focus on what’s next because we’ve got two very, very important games now – we’ve got TS Galaxy and Maritzburg United, so we need to bring our feet firmly back to the ground.” He spoke

Masandawana were on the back foot for a large majority of the match. It was clear that they were up against extremely stiff competition.

“We can probably say a satisfactory trip where we are not entirely happy. We always want to improve.

“But if you look at it where we went and wanted six points, we got only four, if it’s four out of six you can be satisfied and content.

“We had other objectives. Like to try to put the team together, to try to work a little bit to improve a little bit on the tactical and technical themes in preparing for the two different opponents.

“We also tried to work on our conditioning. Particularly for the players that have not been playing and getting a lot of game time.

“The facilities also helped players that are returning from injury like Mosa [Lebusa] and Lebohang Maboe.” He spoke.

They will play The Rockets tomorrow evening in domestic action. Rulani Mokwena Wants to Remain Humble After Beating Al Ahly In Egypt!
