While Mamelodi Sundowns coach Miguel Cardoso will hope to guide the Brazilians to a second CAF Champions League title, the Portuguese mentor also believes that the upcoming finale against Pyramids will be a good advert for African football.


The second-leg of the CAF Champions League final is delicately poised to continue at the 30 June Stadium on Sunday evening, with the score tied at 1-1 on aggregate.


According to Cardoso, the standard of football throughout the tournament ought to be noted and urged the referees to officiate at the highest level.


“But I think that it’s also a moment for us to celebrate not only football in general, because it should be a great moment to highlight the quality of African football,” Cardoso said, as per SuperSport.


“Also, the teams that are playing this final and for the referees that are going to referee the final understand that they should perform at the highest level, the highest standard this season in African football.


“And that should be taken as a very positive responsibility.”
