Choeu: We must compete with Sundowns on their level

Marumo Gallants assistant coach Harris Choeu has called on his side to give a monumental effort when they face Mamelodi Sundowns in the Nedbank Cup final.

Gallants face the DStv Premiership champions at the Royal Bafokeng Stadium on Saturday.
Having finished their league season 31 points behind Sundowns in 11th position, Choeu knows just how hard it will be for Gallants to lift the trophy.
Ahead of the weekend’s game, he said on IOL: “Sundowns players are role models to many within our team. We have to work on things and devise ways to beat players who are role-models. We have to do training sessions so that when we face Sundowns, the minds are level.

“We are regarded as a small and new team and when the season starts, any small team’s objective is to avoid relegation. The next one is to challenge everyone. We have done that.

“Our end result is often not as good as the football we play. We are working on that. We have played so called football in many games where we did not get the three points. That is our weak point and something that we are trying to work on.”
