Mamelodi Sundowns are on the brink of glory as they gear up to face Egypt’s Pyramids FC in the second leg of the CAF Champions League final this Sunday. After a 1-1 draw in the first leg at Loftus Versfeld, the Brazilians are facing a tough challenge in Cairo, needing a win or a high-scoring draw to secure the title.

With their first Champions League title in 2016, Sundowns are now aiming for a second continental crown in what will be their third final appearance. Their first final was back in 2001, where they were defeated by Egyptian powerhouse Al-Ahly.

Club chairman Tlhopie Motsepe expressed his excitement at the prospect of going into the FIFA Club World Cup as African champions. He sees it as a bonus and a motivation for the team, highlighting the privilege they have to participate in the final.

Motsepe emphasized the team’s commitment to playing daring and entertaining football, as well as their responsibility to inspire and give hope through the sport. He reiterated the club’s motto, “The Sky is the Limit,” and emphasized their desire to showcase African excellence on the international stage.

If Sundowns emerge victorious on Sunday, it will not only be a significant boost for the team but also a chance to display their renowned free-flowing football against some of the world’s top clubs in the FIFA Club World Cup. Drawn in a challenging group with Borussia Dortmund, Fluminense, and Ulsan, Sundowns are eager to make their mark and show the world what African football is all about.

As they prepare for the final, Motsepe expressed confidence in the players, the coach, and the yellow nation. He believes that they have the ability to go out there and not limit themselves, but instead, showcase their true potential as a football club.
