Mamelodi Sundowns coach Rulani Mokwena says they are under no illusions about the enormity of the challenge against on-form CR Belouizdad at the Nelson Mandela Stadium in Algiers on Saturday night.
“There are a lot of differences in relation to the previous fixture and one of the biggest differences is that we didn’t play in Algeria but in Tanzania. Though there is a little bit of similarities, there is a big evolution in the team in terms of style of play and tactics.“There are a couple of players that remain the same but there has also been a couple of changes and we have to understand that. We are under no illusions and we know how difficult it is going to be.
“Number one, to play against North African sides has always been very difficult for us. We know that we lost the previous encounter in Pretoria against them and we are under no illusions of how difficult this is going to be.“But, we are a very good team with very good players who are honest and always give their best and this is why I have good feelings towards my team.“This is because they are honest, and they always give their best and that is the minimum expectation for us tomorrow .
