“It’s a great feeling to be back, we have worked very hard on our games.” Morena tells the official Mamelodi Sundowns website.

“I need to give everyone credit for the work because we have never started a season like this. It is all about teamwork and we have been doing that well, it is great to see the hard work paying off.” He added.

Mamelodi Sundowns are currently unbeaten in the DSTV Premiership after 16 matches played. They are on course to win a 4th consecutive league title.

The Brazilians have also made it to the last 16 of the Nedbank Cup where they will face Polokwane City on Saturday (27 February).

“One thing we have to know is that whenever you want to achieve you need to sustain pressure, pressure needs to be your friend, the good thing is that we always just take one game at a time” Morena adds on.

Sundowns are now the team that everyone wants to defeat in the league. They have opened up a healthy 4 point gap to SuperSport United while having a game in hand.

“The thing is that when we chase we don’t have the points in the bag we have to fight more and more so sitting on top is better. It’s also difficult because we know everyone coming to face us will want to fight and will try to play us on the counter” Morena concludes.
