Mamelodi Sundowns' Miguel Cardoso on Ronwen Williams injury: It is not a long term one as he will not be out for along time

Ronwen Willams’injury is not a long term one.

The Mamelodi Sundowns goalkeeper and captain missed his side’s 2-0 win over Sekhukhune United in a PSL game earlier this week and his club’s 2-1 defeat to Al Hilal in the Caf Champions League last night.

Veteran Ugandan goal-minder Denis Onyango kept the goals in Williams’ absence.

“That is a good question for our medical department. At the moment, I cannot tell you when he will be available,” Sundowns coach Miguel Cardoso told the media.

“It’s not a long-term injury. But I just worry about the ones that are present. In our previous match, we played in our championship [Betway Premiership]. Denis had a fantastic save that allowed us to fight until the end and win that match.”

“I don’t usually analyse the games in that way because the ball is in the goals and passes the goalkeeper, you have several actions from other players that lead to that decides the moment,” he said.

“It’s like when a team loses, it is not only the coach who is responsible. There are multiple responsibilities, but as a leader of the group, I have to take them, of course. But it’s an analysis that we have to take deeply so that we see the mistakes.”
