'For the country’s happiness' - Ronwen Williams wants Sundowns to lift the nation in Morocco

Mamelodi Sundowns captain and goalkeeper Ronwen Williams.

Mamelodi Sundowns captain Ronwen Williams believes his team has learned its lesson from last year’s CAF Champions League final defeat heading into Sunday’s continental second-leg showpiece with AS FAR in Rabat.

Sundowns fell short in their hunt for a second star last year, losing 3-2 on aggregate to Egyptian side Pyramids.

But the Brazilians now hold a precious 1-0 lead from last Sunday’s first-leg victory, with Williams keeping a clean sheet to deny the Moroccans a crucial away goal in Pretoria.

This has filled Williams with confidence that Sundowns can end their 10-year wait for Africa’s premier trophy.
