Al Ahly have weaknesses – Mokwena

“It’s difficult to comment on their winless record against us away,” The Mamelodi Sundowns coach said as quoted by IOL.

“They are a team that have 393 CAF Champions League appearances among their regulars compared to my team that has 170 CAF Champions League appearances.

“So for sure, without looking too much at the threat and quality they possess, they are strong opponents. (But) like any other team, they have their own weaknesses.

“But we must try and win football matches. Regardless of the time we play at, and where, we show the same enthusiasm and spirit. We did that in Cairo and we must do it again here at home.”
