Legend Kekana backs Sundowns to excel at Club World Cup
Cape Argus
|June 12, 2025
MAMELODI Sundowns' legend Hlompho Kekana says the current crop of players have a chance to do better at the Club World Cup compared to the class of 2016.
Sundowns will be back at the global showpiece which is scheduled to get underway on Saturday in the United States (US).
Their last participation in the tournament was nearly nine years ago in Japan after they won their maiden CAF Champions League crown.
That event exposed that they are still far-off from being a well-oiled machine as they lost their two games to Kashima Antlers and Jeonbuk Motors respectively.
However, the play-offs format has since changed heading to the upcoming event in America as the football governing body, FIFA, has extended the event to 32 teams.
As such, Sundowns are pitted in Group F alongside Ulsan Hyundai, Borussia Dortmund and Fluminense respectively.
With group winners and the runners-up finishers guaranteed a spot in the knockout stage, Kekana wants the Brazilians to soar to the next round after the group stage.
