Sundowns coach, Manqoba Mnqgithi, says they are aware of the threat that the opponents pose.
“We’ve got an idea of what to expect and chances of them seating back, they don’t have benefits from that. We expect a counter attacking game. It’s gonna be very interesting how the game looks like. One thing for sure is that it’s gonna be a very interesting and educational for the spectators and our supporters. Everyone will enjoy it because no one out of the two will be looking for a draw or scared to go at each other,” adds Mnqgithi.
