Defender Khuliso Mudau missed Mamelodi Sundowns’ MTN8 second leg semifinal clash against Kaizer Chiefs on Saturday, and coach Rulani Mokwena says the right back being suspended was a big blow.
It’s not just beating two Soweto giants Orlando Pirates and Kaizer Chiefs this week that’s become a moment to relish for Mamelodi Sundowns coach Rulani Mokwena, but reaching a cup final too.
Not that he thinks Kaizer Chiefs will outplay Mamelodi Sundowns tomorrow afternoon at Lucas Moripe Stadium, but coach Rulani Mokwena says he is expecting a changed Amakhosi side in the MTN8 return leg.
Mamelodi Sundowns remain mum on whether the club will release midfielder Gaston Sirino before Friday’s transfer deadline with Al Wahda – the UAE Pro League outfit coached by Pitso Mosimane – said to be keen on his services.
Mamelodi Sundowns coach Rulani Mokwena on Monday afternoon admitted he’s already made time to analyse Kaizer Chiefs in the middle of their preparation to take on Orlando Pirates on Wednesday.
With 18 days before the transfer window closes, Mamelodi Sundowns could still push for an additional striker according to coach Rulani Mokwena.
