We can go all the way! – Mokwena

“I think if we still have to send the message to doubters there is something wrong,” Mamelodi Sundowns coach Rhulani Mokwena said as quoted by Sowetan.

“For the last six years we have been in the quarterfinals, last season we were in the semifinal for the first time in four or five occasions. And we want to be that team that is always there. It is not good enough to think that you can win a continental trophy without a big stamp on the continent.

“They are there every single season in the quarterfinals and semifinals. Eventually, Mamelodi Sundowns can break the dominance of the North African sides in the competition and we will win the Champions League.”
