Sundowns is not for ‘cry babies’ – Pitso

Mamelodi Sundowns coach Pitso Mosimane has warned his players to guard against succumbing to pressure, saying failure to do that will result them in facing the exit door.


Mosimane’s side appears to be struggling to hit the form that saw them win two league titles in four years, paired with two domestic titles and two continental prizes.

‘Jingles’ says coaching and playing for a team of Masandawana’s caliber is always accompanied by monumental amount of pressure.

“If you talk about pressure at Sundowns, it is like breathing oxygen,” he said.

“Pressure is always there whether you are No.1 or last, you are coaching Mamelodi Sundowns, pressure is always there. If you don’t want the pressure, do not be there,” he added.

The former Bafana Bafana coach continued: “The players have pressure, I have pressure. We are big team that is used to winning, you’ve got to win.”
