Rulani Mokwena Is Playing to Win Against Kaizer Chiefs! The Brazilians take on Amakhosi today.

Mamelodi Sundowns host Kaizer Chiefs in the MTN 8 this afternoon. Head coach Rulani Mokwena has expressed his desire to win this encounter. 

The Brazilians have a slight advantage heading into the encounter. The solo goal they scored courtesy of Khuliso Mudau gave them an away goal.

However, this does not render this game done and dusted, according to Mokwena.

“It’s a small advantage, but it is an advantage that we worked very hard to get,” the head coach told the media.

“However, it means nothing if we don’t perform in the second half, which consists of the next 90 minutes of the tie. We were pleased with the equalizer we achieved in the first leg. 

“At Sundowns, our goal is always to try to win every game, regardless of the advantage or disadvantage we may have had. The attitude at this great club is always focused on winning and that is our mentality. 

“We will strive to win the game on Saturday, even though it may be very challenging,” he added.

Mokwena also took the time to point out the strengths of the opponents.

“To be honest, they are a very good side with some excellent players who create lots of chances. They do very well with the ball from the wings and they are a threat any day, any time. 

“Their midfield options are always strong as well, which gives them some form of dynamism, so we have to be well-prepared. I am sure they say the same about us and they should also be well-prepared to face us.” He concluded.

Kick off this afternoon is at 15h30. Rulani Mokwena Is Playing to Win Against Kaizer Chiefs!
