Wayne Arendse advises Mamelodi Sundowns to stick to their style to beat AS FAR in CAF final

Tashreeq Matthews will be key for Mamelodi Sundowns in the CAF Champions League final second league against AS FAR.

Wayne Arendse has advised Mamelodi Sundowns to stick to their usual approach against AS FAR in Rabat, saying that is the only way they can win over hearts in foreign territory and improve their chances of victory.

Sundowns will visit AS FAR at Prince Moulay Abdellah Stadium on Sunday night (8pm kick-off). They already hold the advantage in the tie after securing a slender 1-0 victory in the first leg at Loftus Versfeld last Sunday.

Given that, anything other than a defeat in Rabat will crown Sundowns champions of Africa, ending the club’s 10-year drought, with their last triumph coming under Pitso Mosimane in 2016.

Sundowns cannot afford to leave anything to chance in Morocco, as the hosts’ supporters – including fans of arch-rivals Wydad Casablanca and Raja Casablanca – are expected to rally behind AS FAR, creating a hostile atmosphere for the Brazilians and a boost for the home side.
