Sundowns knew Angola test would be tough

The Brazilians were unable to find a breakthrough against Wiliete, but head coach Miguel Cardoso has stressed the need to respect the quality of their opponents. The Tshwane giants will now look to turn things around in the return leg as they continue their quest to retain the CAF Champions League crown.

Cardoso assesses Wiliete stalemate - 'We're not happy...'

The Brazilians' mentor has expressed his frustration after his side played out a scoreless draw against the Angolan side in their continental second preliminary round opener. The Portuguese tactician cited physical exhaustion as a key factor behind a performance that lacked the usual clinical edge seen from the defending champions.

Masandawana faithful have been handed a significant boost regarding the fitness of the number one goalkeeper. The Bafana Bafana star was a notable absentee during the Brazilians' CAF Champions League outing, sparking fears over a long-term layoff.

Cardoso provides Mokoena injury update

The Pretoria club are facing a nervous wait over the fitness of their star midfielder after he was forced off during their goalless CAF Champions League draw against Wiliete SC. The Bafana Bafana international lasted just 40 minutes before being replaced, casting a shadow over the Brazilians' continental campaign.

The Tshwane giants began their CAF Champions League title defence in Angola, where they had to settle for a share of the spoils despite missing several clear-cut opportunities. Miguel Cardoso's team will now look to make their chances count in the return leg as they aim to secure progress on home soil.

Cardoso earns backing after trophy triumph & new contract

Masandawana legend Roger Feutmba has thrown his full support behind the head coach, insisting that the Portuguese tactician has earned the right to lead the club for the long term. Following a period of significant trophy success at Chloorkop, the former midfielder believes the recent contract extension awarded to the 54-year-old mentor is a just reward for his continental and domestic achievements.
