SuperSport United Reveal Plan For Mamelodi Sundowns In Cup Clash

SuperSport United Reveal Plan For Mamelodi Sundowns In Cup Clash

Pitso Mosimane and Mamelodi Sundowns should be warned as they prepare for their cup match against SuperSport United, if the coach of the Tshwane club's words regarding their planning are anything to go by.

Matsatsantsa will host the Brazilians this weekend in the first leg of their MTN8 semi-final two-legged fixture. Although both matches will be played at Lucas Moripe Stadium, this coming Sunday's clash will be the home fixture for Matsatsantsa, with the teams set to return to the same venue on September 18 for the second leg to be hosted by Sundowns.

Speaking to the media ahead of this weekend's match, SuperSport coach Kaitano Tembo revealed the plan as the Tshwane outfit aims to upset the Brazilians to boost chances of advancing to the final of the prestigious competition.   

Tembo's warning to Downs is that Matsatsantsa will try and do half of their job in the first leg, with the aim of finishing them off in the second leg.  

"I think the best result for us is to win the game and we don't concede. That would be the best result to take us to the second leg," said Tembo.

"The second leg is where the away goal rule counts. It's the derby and we know that previously there have been goals. We need to try and manage the game properly so that we don't expose ourselves, so as to give ourselves opportunity in the second leg," the coach added.
