Cardoso sweating over Mokoena & Williams fitness ahead of Super Cup
Mamelodi Sundowns coach Miguel Cardoso remains uncertain about the fitness of two key players, Teboho Mokoena and Ronwen Williams, ahead of the CAF Super Cup match against USM Alger on Sunday at Loftus Versfeld. Mokoena and Williams have been battling injuries in recent weeks, with the coach providing an update on their conditions after Sundowns' 1-0 victory over Golden Arrows in the Carling Knockout match on Tuesday.
Mokoena has been absent from Sundowns' last four matches, having last featured in the CAF Champions League away fixture against Wiliete SC. His injury has been a setback for the team, as he returned from international duty in poor condition and then suffered an injury during a game against Wiliete SC, which led to him standing on one leg and missing subsequent matches.
Ronwen Williams, on the other hand, has been sidelined for three games, although his injury is not considered serious. The coach is doing his best to get Williams back to full condition for the match.
Despite the potential absence of Mokoena and Williams, Sundowns will enter the Super Cup with high spirits after securing their place in the Carling Knockout semi-finals with a victory over Arrows. The Tshwane giants are now aiming for another piece of silverware, having already won the MTN8 and FIFA African-Asian Pacific Cup. Cardoso praised his team's performance against Arrows, highlighting their discipline and patience, and their ability to stick to the game plan.
