Mamelodi Sundowns head coach Miguel Cardoso has urged his side to become ‘stronger, more aggressive and offensive’ ahead of their CAF Champions League second-leg against Wiliete SC.

The Brazilians played out a goalless draw against the Angolans in the first leg at the Estádio Nacional da Tundavala on Sunday.

Sundowns will be looking to advance to the Group Stages when they welcome Wiliete to Loftus Versfeld Stadium on Friday.

Cardoso stressed the need for the Brazilians to be more aggressive and stronger in their approach.

“We need to prepare in the best way,” Cardoso told Sundowns media team.

“We need to be stronger, more aggressive and offensive for the team that wants to leave a mark on the Champions League.”
