Orlando Pirates chairman Irvin Khoza says it would be good for South Africa and Mamelodi Sundowns if coach Pitso Mosimane can lead his charges to a second Caf Champions League title.

Mosimane and his men have advanced to the semifinal of the Caf Champions league after beating Al Ahly 5-1 on aggregate. They are set to meet Wydad Casablanca in the semis later this month.
Khoza has urged South Africans to support Sundowns.

“Sundowns’ commitment and the result (against Al Ahly) is good, but it is not over yet. It is not easy to play some African sides at home,” Khoza was quoted saying by Isolezwe.
“Sundowns is one of the teams that ensure they compete in the Caf Champions League. We support Sundowns. It would be nice for Pitso to add another star on the Sundowns jersey.”
