How many times has he sneered the phrase ‘parking the bus’ when describing the approach of defensive-minded opponents who come to take on his team?

It will be a tough test of Sundowns’ mental strength and fighting will as they face a barrage of negative play‚ time-wasting tactics and unsporting shenanigans designed to break down their spirit and sap the fight out of them. Al Ahly’s determination to extract revenge for last year’s 5-1 aggregate mauling at the hands of Sundowns is reflected in their approach to Saturday’s second leg.
They were thrashed 5-0 on their last trip to Pretoria but are not expected to make the same mistakes again.Al Ahly have only twice before let slip a two goal lead in an African club competition tie.
