Lucky Lekgwathi: I Am Going To Wear My Sundowns Jersey On Saturday

Former Orlando Pirates captain, Lucky Lekgwathi has revealed that he will be donning a Mamelodi Sundowns' jersey in full support of the Tshwane giants when they face Zamalek in the CAF Champions League final.

Sundowns will host Egyptian giants, Zamalek at the Lucas Moripe Stadium on Saturday, 15 October, for the first-leg encounter of the showpiece match, and "Captain my Captain", as he is fondly called by the football fraternity, has stressed the importance of Sundowns keeping a clean sheet on the day.

"With my experience, I played in the final and we also started at home. I think our biggest mistake was that we allowed Al Ahly to score at home. I know if you don't want the team to score, you are playing under pressure. But Sundowns must make sure that those guys don't score at home (Lucas Moripe Stadium)," Lekgwathi told the Siya crew.

"Whenever they get a chance to score, put the ball inside the net! One-nil, 2-0 is not going to be easy, they must make sure that they score three."

"Whenever you play in Egypt, those teams play mind games with you. Sundowns must make sure that they win at home because in the second-leg Zamalek are going to play mind games.

"Obviously I am going to support Sundowns, it is my home team. I come from Tshwane. Sundowns previously gave me a jersey and I am going to wear my Sundowns jersey on Saturday," the 2013 CAF Champions League finalist told the Siya crew.
