As Mamelodi Sundowns' schedule gets even more congested with Nedbank Cup and Caf Champions League fixtures coming up, coach Rulani Mokwena is not worried ...
“That’s what we had to do. “They are a tough team that play with inverted fullbacks. “We know about the schedule and we knew about it going into the mini mid-season break and we worked hard trying to make sure every player is ready.
Rulani Mokwena has been preparing his Mamelodi Sundowns side way in advance for the influx of fixtures this month going forward.
We are working a little bit harder to make sure that we improve the team,” Mokwena said. The only solution to a hectic schedule is freshness and rotation and making everybody feel part of the process. We tried to train every player in a way that makes sure that everyone is ready.
