Mamelodi Sundowns coach Pitso Mosimane says his team is not the same since coming back after five months Covid-19 enforced break.
Sundowns have played four games since the restart, including one game in the Nedbank cup. The Brazilians have drawn two games and lost one in the Absa premiership with their only win coming in the cup game.
“We are struggling but we are a team that struggles with a fight. It is a fact, we cannot hide that. If we are doing very well, we should be winning. We are not winning, in the league we drew two and lost one. We are struggling it is a fact and we cannot hide it. Sundowns are not the same since we came back.” Mosimane told a virtual press conference after their 3-2 defeat against Cape Town City on Monday night.
The Brazilians are now six points behind log leaders Kaizer Chiefs and coach Mosimane concedes that the league looks like it is going but they will fight until the end.
“The manner in which we’re going, it looks like it is going, because we’re not winning. We played three games, we’ve drawn two and we’ve lost one. In that context it looks so.
“Reality maybe, it looks so. But until the last game, until it is mathematically proven that we can’t win it we will accept it.
“But that’s it, that’s football for us. That’s the story of Mamelodi Sundowns after Covid-19 or inside Covid-19, that’s reality – to be honest. We should try and fight and we’ll keep going. We can’t just leave it and say ‘it’s done’, we will go for it.
“If we don’t win it, the table will say we don’t win it and we should accept it,’’ said Mosimane
