Brazilians came, saw and conquered Africa’s best

Mamelodi Sundowns have now set their sights on the Fifa Club World Cup in December after winning the African Champions League in Alexandria‚ Egypt‚ on Sunday night.

South African Football Association (Safa) president Danny Jordaan said club owner Patrice Motsepe and coach Pitso Mosimane deserve all the accolades they get after Sundowns beat Zamalek 3-1 on aggregate in the two-legged final.

“In conclusion and on behalf of Safa and football family‚ we want to reiterate our congratulations to coach Pitso Mosimane‚ his technical team‚ the players and the loyal Sundowns fans; South Africa stands tall on the African continent once again. Well done.”

The draw for the tournament has already been made and Sundowns open their campaign in the quarterfinal on December 11 against the winner of a playoff match between the Oceania champions and the African champions. — Tiso Black Star Group Digital
