Dikwena gearing up for Mbabane Swallows clash

Platinum Stars coach Cavin Johnson will not underestimate Swaziland side Mbabane Swallows when they lock horns in the Caf Confederations Cup group stage match.


Swallows reached the group stages of the club competition for the first time after beating Orapa United (Botswana), Azam (Tanzania) and AC Leopards (Congo).

Johnson is aware that Swallows have stepped up their game and will bring the fight to them at the Somhlolo National Stadium on Tuesday afternoon.

“We will go with the strongest team we can in order to get three points. We trained on astro turf,” said coach Johnson. “We have quite a bit [of information], like we had on Alger. Some of their games are on TV, so we were able to get it.”
