Sundowns have hit a slump, going for five games without a win ahead of their league game with SuperSport United. Dolly’s absence in the middle of the field for Sundowns is evident as Pitso Mosimane’s side are struggling to win matches.
The Bafana Bafana midfidfieler was part of the three-man formidable attacking unit engineered by Mosimane after his departure to French team Montpellier in late January.
“Well‚ I would say yeah‚ we do miss Keagan because he has been our key player for the past season‚ and for the games we played in the Champions League‚” Kekana said.
“Obviously losing him so early wasn’t expected. We were very close to him and understood him both on the pitch and as a person‚ and it was a difficult thing to accept that he had moved to greener pastures.
“As players I think we just have to make sure that we apply ourselves as professionals and make sure we start winning matches.
“That’s the only important thing at the moment because that’s the situation we are in.”
