Kennedy Mweene opens up on enjoyable but tough coaching experience at Mamelodi Sundowns - 'You don't sleep under Rhulani Mokwena'

Mamelodi Sundowns FC

Orlando Pirates

Mamelodi Sundowns' assistant goalkeeper coach Kennedy Mweene has spoken about the "enjoyable" homework he gets from the club's head coach Rhulani Mokwena before matches.&nbsp;The ex-Zambia international was appointed a goalkeeper assistant coach by the Premier Soccer League champions following<a href="https://www.goal.com/en-za/news/kennedy-mweene-mamelodi-sundowns-confirm-retirement-of-decorated-zambian-goalkeeper/blt8e19a52f69357b63" target="_blank"> his retirement in July 2023.</a>&nbsp;Mweene conceded that being a player was much better than being a coach, however, he readily admitted to learning plenty under Mokwena as a coach.&nbsp;

WHAT HAPPENED?

"I even say it was better when I was a player because where I am now, there is too much to do. There are a lot of things that go behind the scenes and now I can feel it," Mweene said on SABC Live."People may think he [Mokwena] is lying when he says he doesn't sleep, but when he comes to training you would see he hasn't slept. One thing that helps him is his work ethic, he is a hard-working person."You can not sleep, you watch four to five games every day unless you have a match, but I am enjoying it. It is good that I am learning other things apart from what I already knew," he continued."I only knew playing football, I didn't know about other things like preparing a session, preparing for a training session, and many other behind-the-scenes stuff."But I am learning and it is good that I am getting all these things from coach Rhulani because I was seeing things from a player's perspective so now I am seeing it from the coaches' side."

WHAT WAS SAID

The former Free State Stars player is one of a select few who enjoyed unrivalled success at the Brazilians under then-coach Pitso Mosimane.&nbsp;The 38-year-old is one of the most decorated players in South African football. He has won the Caf Champions League, PSL titles, and several cup competition trophies.His contributions saw the club's keeper Ronwen Williams hit top form this season and help Bafana Bafana secure<a href="https://www.goal.com/en-za/lists/ronwen-williams-to-the-rescue-bafana-bafana-secure-afcon-2023-bronze-medal-after-win-over-dr-congo/bltac274c4ab2298ea9" target="_blank"> third position in the 2023 Afcon tournament.</a>
