The Brazilians touched down in Kwa-Zulu natal on Friday to a buzz from local supporter branches at King Shaka International Airport.
Abafana Besthende are scheduled to host the Brazilians at the Sugar Ray Xulu Stadium in their Telkom Knockout semi-final match at 15H00 on Saturday.
Downs will be looking to avenge their 3-2 loss at the same venue in their Absa Premiership clash prior to the FIFA break.
Tickets for the much-anticipated TKO match have been sold out, as both teams look to secure a spot in this years final.
Match details:
Golden Arrows Vs Mamelodi Sundowns
23 November
15:00
Sugar Ray Xulu Stadium
let me wish the Team a very successful game today, I wish that it does not rain so that we can see good type of football from both teams, I wish the PSL was fair enough to learn from the previous game that the stadium does not have a good drainage system, although people say we cannot complain about the ground because both teams are playing on the same field BUT that is risking injuries and the safety thereof. we have Moses Mabida nearby which could have been used. Yes we must know that we need to double our efforts to win cups were the Zebras are also contenders. any player fielded today GOOD LUCK.kby
This one is for us masandawana, sorry GA but Sundowns is my first love, and I so wish the noisy Naturena wins too tmrw cos now everyone at work is saying this is chiefs’s season, sundowns stands no chance
We wish Well for Sundowns . Chances we know we shall get, players just have to be clinical, make use of the chances in the first half, whether it rain or not the mentality must just be right , these conditions are a preparation for Caf , as long as there is no Lightning matches will always be played on all grounds. Sundowns players actually must pray that it rains again so that they correct the mistakes of the last match, if it does not rain it must just be welcomed as a bonus to Sundowns. They must be prepared to adjust to whatever the conditions give on the day. When we win , we win, when we lose, we lose. We must accept everything without blaming any conditions because its true they affect both teams ,the team that adapts to the conditions first and make less mistakes wins. To talk of drainage today for a stadium that has been used for many years will be an excuse, now that you know what measures have we put in place for the same conditions?The right mindset wins matches when conditions seem to be unfavorable ,fighting spirit and getting things right at the right time. You miss your chances you are out of the competition, you do things right you proceed to another level.
