“My speech before the game was congratulations because you know about it. That’s something that they need to be congratulated for.” Mokwena said as quoted by IOL

“The league title is the hardest (trophy) to win in any country because we’ve got to play against 15 opponents, both home and away and the competition lasts for eight months.”
