With Mamelodi Sundowns having one foot in the CAF Champions League semifinal following their 4-1 victory over CR Belouizdad in the first leg, former player Linda Buthelezi has backed them to go all the way and win the continental title this season.
Sundowns have failed to pass the quarterfinal stage in the past three editions but they have a chance of ending that after thumping the Algerian side on Saturday.After watching the Brazilians’ clinical display on Saturday, Buthelezi is convinced they will now go all the way and win the title this time.
"Sundowns are very intelligent when it comes to the achievements they have, they are more motivated and I still believe that if coach Rulani Mokwena can motivate them more they will go all the way.Sundowns won their only Champions League title in 2016. Meanwhile, Sundowns will return to DStv Premiership action this afternoon, hosting Richards Bay at Loftus Versfeld , and their defender Khuliso Mudau said they'll seek to return to winning ways after a four-match domestic winless run.
