“That’s a tricky one because we will not be with the players during this Christmas break. We will give them a few days off, and we have a game on January 2 against Pirates. Then on the 5th we are playing (Galaxy) again,” Mngqithi told the media.
“We know it’s not going to be an easy one for us, because it will depend on how people party. But I am optimistic that we will come right, and our boys understand the value of getting into the group stages, that’s what we always play for. It is more than important for us to have the dominance in the Champions League.” he added.
