You Cannot Compare Them: Cardoso Explains Why Current Sundowns Are Different From Last Season

The South African champions Mamelodi Sundowns were unable to collect $500,000 (about R8.2 million) in prize money because they were unable to win another continental title.The club from Pretoria had high hopes of adding to their impressive trophy case when they participated in the continental competition.

Unfortunately, they won’t be able to cash in on the substantial prize money that’s up for grabs if they don’t emerge victorious from the campaign.The financial reward would have given Sundowns an extra financial boost, so their disappointment extends beyond not winning any hardware.A number of the club’s activities, such as player recruitment, squad development, and future competition preparations, could have benefited greatly from the half-million dollar prize.Playing against top clubs all over Africa on a regular basis, Sundowns has become one of the most dominant teams in African football.

Winning big CAF competitions and improving their international reputation have always been their goals.But continental football is fiercely competitive, so winning a championship calls for top-notch play all season long and the ability to triumph over formidable opponents.Fans and members of the club who had hoped for more continental triumphs will be further disappointed by the opportunity lost.Even so, Sundowns can show their mettle in both local and international competitions and hopefully win more trophies.In order to keep their place among the top football teams in Africa, the club’s technical staff and players will now have to focus on upcoming assignments.
