Former Kaizer Chiefs star midfielder Mandla Masango believes Amakhosi will be out for revenge when they take on Mamelodi Sundowns at a sold-out Carling Knockout quarterfinal in FNB Stadium on Saturday.
The last time the two teams met was on September 28 in the Betway Premiership and the 2-1 win for Sundowns dominated the headlines for days due to questionable officiating decisions.
In an interview with TimesLIVE’s Mahlatse Mphahlele on Friday, Masango was adamant Amakhosi’s loss would be a strong motivation for the team to beat Sundowns in front of about 90,000 spectators.
“A good thing about a game of this magnitude is that the coach doesn’t need to motivate you [players]. It is self-motivation. Chiefs are out for revenge. They felt robbed in the league, so this is their opportunity to come and play well and win the game,” he said.
