While Bafana Bafana won't be playing on the African stage next year in the 2022 Afcon, Mamelodi Sundowns can still do the nation proud by winning the Caf Champions League this season.
At that point, the likes of Khama Billiat, Leonardo Castro, Keagan Dolly, Anthony Laffor, Percy Tau and Wayne Arendse, all of whom are no longer at the club, were key players for Masandawana when they won the Champions League.
While several players from the 2016-winning side are still at the club, the Sundowns squad does look a lot different these days and, of course, Mosimane, now at Al Ahly in Egypt, has been replaced by co-coaches Manqoba Mngqithi and Rhulani Mokwena, together with a third coach in Steve Komphela.
