The 5-0 and 3-1 defeats inflicted by Celtic in 2015 and 2016 were under Mosimane’s watch‚ but the latter league result remains the last time Celtic have beaten Sundowns.

With the teams meeting in an MTN8 quarterfinal on Saturday night at Lucas “Masterpieces” Moripe Stadium ‚ Mosimane was quick to point out his side’s recent dominance over their well-supported Bloemfontein rivals.

Sundowns‚ who beat SuperSport United in their opening game‚ drew 1-1 against Chippa United on Wednesday.“I think you’re referring to the 5-0 loss‚ but it must also be remembered as to how many times we’ve beaten them in the time I’ve been here‚” Mosimane said. “There’s been a big win somewhere and we can go on.

“We weren’t killed to pieces in that game‚ but we’ve also inflicted big defeats on other teams‚ but it’s not right for us to talk about those games. It’s like you bragging and it’s not right to do that.”With the change of the Caf Champions League programme to fit in with the majority of domestic seasons‚ Mosimane said his team have a better chance of snaring the one piece of silverware that hasn’t quite come his way.

“[But] It’s an in-season trophy‚ it starts when the league games have just started. We still want to win it‚ though‚ and the reason we haven’t won the tournament is because we’re [usually] in week two or week three of the pre-season programme because of Champions League commitments.
