national league - coaches - South Africa - 'It's not about colour... it's about hard work'

"People say it's easy to win with Sundowns (because of their financial strength), but why couldn't they win the league for the last seven years with the players that they bought and with the money that's been put into the team? What's the difference? I work hard, I don't play golf."

- Pitso Mosimane / Mamelodi Sundowns Coach
