Mamelodi Sundowns coach Rulani Mokwena reserved some special praise for match-winner Junior Mendieta on Tuesday night. Sundowns didn’t enjoy the fluid football they are known for and with a draw on the cards, Argentine-born Junior Mendieta struck the winner right at the death. It was a much-changed side with the usual suspects rested ahead of Friday’s key quarter-final second-leg showdown against Young Africans in the CAF Champions League.“One thing I said even to the players on the bench, he deserved it. You know, because he is not one when he doesn’t play, he’s got a long face and he sulks no. He is so positive; he tries and he’s coachable," Mokwena told SuperSport TV

Mamelodi Sundowns coach Rulani Mokwena praised match-winner Junior Mendieta for his positive attitude and coachability. Sundowns struggled in their match against Richards Bay but Mendieta scored the winning goal in the last moments of the game.
