It’s a cup final – Mokwena

“It’s a very important game with a profile of utmost importance to us because as we said before, all these games at the moment are cup finals for us and we have to approach it as such,” Mamelodi Sundowns co-coach Rhulani Mokwena said ahead of this afternoon’s clash against AmaZulu.

“It hasn’t been easy to prepare particularly after an unfortunate result against TTM in the Cup. But we have to dust ourselves and show some mental resolve and dig deep and produce a good performance because when two very good teams meet you have no chance if you don’t play very well.

“Mamelodi Sundowns have to play very well and give ourselves a chance to win the match against a very good team with a very good technical staff, well-coached and also with very good players. AmaZulu have very good players and that is why their results have been very good.”
