“I will only start thinking about our game against Bloemfontein Celtic next week. The most important thing for me at the moment is to push myself – so that I can be physically ready for the match.
"We will have a chance to watch them play in the final against Bidvest Wits since the game will be played in Durban. We will study them and see if we can identify their weaknesses. Then we will look to capitalise on their weaknesses next week at home,” Nyongo told AmaZulu’s official website.
