Rulani Mokwena Demands A Good Performance From Mamelodi Sundowns!

Rulani Mokwena Demands A Good Performance From Mamelodi Sundowns! The Brazilians take on AmaZulu in the DSTV Premiership this afternoon.

This is a high profile fixture as Mamelodi Sundowns and Usuthu occupy the top 2 spots on the log. Bafana Ba Style currently has a 6-point lead on their opponents with 2 games in hand.

Sundowns go into this game on the back of a disappointing defeat to Tshakhuma Tsha Madzivhandila on penalties on Sunday evening. This came in the Nedbank Cup.

“It is a very important game, a game that has a profile with utmost importance for us.” Mokwena tells the club website.

“We said before that these games are a cup final for us at this moment and we have to approach it as such. It was not easy to prepare for this one in particular after a difficult and unfortunate result against TTM in the cup, we have to dust ourselves off and show mental resolve and dig deep to produce a good result.” The coach added.

Under the tutelage of Benni McCarthy, AmaZulu have skyrocketed up the table. They are currently on a 6-game winning streak in the league.

No team in the DSTV Premiership has been on such a run this season.

“When two very good teams meet you have no chance if you do not play very well, we have to play very well tomorrow and give ourselves to win the match against a very good, well-coached team. They are a well-coached side because they have a clear identity, the schemes are clear, the build-up structures are clear, the high pressing instincts are clear, the final third preparation in terms of how they build the attack is clear.

“They have good players who influence both phases of the game.

“It is going to be interesting to see but we must be able to give our best performance. Our best performance is the only way we have an opportunity to win against this good side”, the coach concluded.
