Esperance defender Mohamed Dräger has expressed admiration for Mamelodi Sundowns ahead of the second leg of their CAF Champions League semi-final. The match will be played at Loftus Versfeld on Saturday.
Mamelodi Sundowns hold a 1-0 advantage from the first leg, which took place in North Africa last weekend. This result positions them favorably for a place in the Champions League final.
Sundowns and Esperance have a history of competitive matches in the CAF Champions League. Sundowns eliminated Esperance in last season’s quarter-finals, while Esperance was victorious in the 2024 semi-finals.
Mohamed Dräger stated his respect for Sundowns across all aspects of the team. He described them as a “big force,” particularly at home, and highlighted their dynamic nature, tactical preparation, and technical proficiency under the guidance of their coach and staff. Dräger characterized the current matchup as a contest against one of Africa’s top teams.
The second leg is scheduled to begin at 15:00 GMT at Loftus Versfeld.
