WHAT WAS SAID

Mokoena has also spoken about the preparations for their semi-final clash against Stellenbosch."I think the preparations (for an MTN8 match against Stellenbosch) have been going well with the team and the team is looking forward to the game," he said."I think we played well in the first half against Polokwane City and in the second half, we were losing a bit of energy and they were motivated."But I think if we can convert our chances in the first half, then we will make it easier for ourselves."

Mokoena helped Sundowns win the inaugural African Football League and the PSL title under former coach Rhulani Mokwena in the last campaign.&nbsp;The phenom midfield maestro also played a huge role in Hugo Broos' Bafana Bafana squad that finished in third place in the Africa Cup of Nations finals in Ivory Coast earlier this year.&nbsp;

Mokoena will be hoping to impress his suitors this season under coach Manqoba Mngqithi at Sundowns.&nbsp;Apart from his commitment at Downs, the Bethlehem-born star will be looking to play a huge role in Bafana Bafana's upcoming Africa Cup of Nations qualifiers.&nbsp;
