MANQOBA MNGQITHI RATING
According to coach Mngqithi, PSL and CAFCL defenders should be worried.
“I am very impressed with Lucas, a technically unbelievable player who is going to score a lot of goals for us,” the Sundowns mentor told the club’s media.
“He still has to work a lot in his intensity, in his defensive plays, pressing and all that, but offensively he’s adding a lot of value in what we have already,” the former Golden Arrows and AmaZulu head coach added.
