Miguel Cardoso appreciates ex-Mamelodi Sundowns Pitso Mosimane following the former coaches positive message

Miguel Cardoso has expressed his joy at the message of support from former Mamelodi Sundowns coach Pitso Mosimane.

Mosimane sent a ‘good luck’ message to the team ahead of their Caf Champions League first leg match against ASFAR.

That match ended 1-0 to the Brazilians via a Aubrey Modiba free-kick at Loftus Versveld two days ago and are heading to Morocco this Sunday for the return leg.

Cardoso sounded pleased man from hearing from Mosimane, who is the first and the last man, to have won the Caf Champions League trophy with Sundowns in 2016.

“I didn’t have ever the privilege to cross paths with him or to meet him. I would be very pleased, obviously, to have that chance,” said Cardoso.

“And I’m very thankful for his support because it means that he has still Sundowns in the heart, but most of all, it means that he’s on the side of the team from his country.

“That is obviously very important for us that we have the support of the country and that support should be systematic and done in concrete actions towards what we have to face throughout an entire season.

“It’s a moment, obviously, that energy comes from all sides and as much union, as much communion and as much peace we have around us, the best to allow us to work in the direction that we want.

“So, any support will be welcome. And as I said, thank you very much for those words.”
