Mamelodi Sundowns goalkeeper Ronwen Williams has called on his teammates to pull together. This follows a disappointing Caf Super Cup defeat to USM Alger.
The match took place at Loftus Versfeld Stadium. Sundowns conceded an early goal just four minutes in when Zakaria Draoui scored.
Iqraam Rayners equalised from the penalty spot in the first half. However, Saadi Radouani put the visitors back ahead before the break.
USM Alger extended their lead to 3-1 early in the second half through a curling effort by substitute Ahmed Khaldi. This setback follows the club’s recent exit from the CAF Champions League.
Reflecting on the match, Williams stressed the importance of unity. He stated that pointing fingers helps no one.
“We need each other,” Williams said. He urged supporters to stick together through this difficult period.
The goalkeeper admitted the loss will hurt for a long time. Yet, he emphasised the need for the team to reflect and regroup.
Williams noted that the season is still long. The squad must draw strength from one another and keep growing.
He acknowledged the pain of losing a final at home. However, he believes the team can learn valuable lessons from the experience.
“We need to dig deep,” Williams added. He highlighted the massive stature of the club and congratulated the opponents.
