Sredojevic said the Soweto giants are motivated to play against the African champions."Instead of thinking about things behind us, we need to rather think of what is ahead. We are fully aware that we are playing African Champions away in conditions we are not familiar with. Bearing in mind we are representing South Africa, we shall inject motivation to get the best possible result. It won't be easy, but we definitely want to give it our best shot like we always do," the coach told the media, as quoted on CAF's official website.
