DSTV PREMIERSHIP: KAIZER CHIEFS VS MAMELODI SUNDOWNS
It was in August when the champions made lightweight of Amakhosi. The result at Loftus was a merciless 4-0 win that left coach Arthur Zwane extremely embarrassed.
According to Mnguni, this weekend’s round two battle will be a similar breeze for Sundowns. The reason is Chiefs’ reliance on kids.
“Five players from the MDC [reserve league]? Come on,” Mnguni said via Sowetan Live.

“At least have three from the Diski Challenge and mix [them] up with experienced players to help the young kids to gel. Help them to have that confidence and those young players must prove themselves.
“But those young ones, I’m being honest with, you I don’t see Chiefs beating Sundowns with the form they are having with these players.

“I mean, they are playing players who are not ready to play in the Premiership, but you just play them, I don’t know why. I don’t know what other coaches are thinking about getting the players ready before you put them in.
“Remember, we beat them 4-0 [in the first round in August] and the boys were playing the same way they are doing now. When you play a team that has been winning games like Sundowns it’s difficult to plan.
“Sundowns will win against Chiefs and set a new record [of most wins in a row], we always break records,” Mnguni concluded.
