[PICTURE] Gaston Sirino Meets Ex-Teammate Ricardo Nascimento In Durban

It can’t be surprising that they get along so much considering that they’re South Americans in South Africa, Ricardo Nascimento and Gaston Sirino have met again in Durban. Not so long ago, they were teammates at Mamelodi Sundowns but the Brazilian defender left the club for Royal AM based in Durban.

But it seems like they still connect. Now, Sundowns is currently in camp in Durban as they’ll be taking part in the Prince Mangosuthu Legacy Cup that’s going to be played this weekend. See the picture below as Sirino meets Nascimento.

“It’s very important that we come and play this tournament, it’s a good tournament for us as players to gauge ourselves.

KHABO ZONDO WANTS TO DO WELL LOCALLY THAN AT CAF

Royal AM coach Khabo Zondo says they want to do well locally more than they will do at CAF as they secured CAF Confederation Cup ticket last season.

“We want to do well in both the Caf and PSL games,” said Zondoin a recent interview during the launch of the KwaZulu-Natal Premier’s Cup. You must bear in mind that the Caf games tend to be different to what we have here at home.

“If we win (in Caf games) that would be a good thing to happen but if we don’t, that would not be the end of the world. But where we really need to do well is in the PSL where we have to be competitive like we were last season.”
