Miguel Cardoso Reveals Mamelodi Sundowns’ Remaining Trophy Targets After Champions League Exit

Mamelodi Sundowns have been encouraged to put their CAF Champions League disappointment behind them and focus on the remaining competitions they can still win this season.

Head coach Miguel Cardoso has reminded the Pretoria-based club that their campaign is far from finished, despite their elimination from Africa’s most prestigious club competition. His message highlights the importance of remaining focused and determined as the team continues its pursuit of silverware on multiple fronts.

“There’s a lot of trophies to play for!” Cardoso said, emphasising that Sundowns still have several opportunities to turn their season into a successful one.

The Brazilians remain involved in the Betway Premiership, where they will aim to maintain their competitive position and strengthen their chances of securing another league title. Winning the domestic championship would provide an important response to their disappointment in continental competition.

Beyond the league, Sundowns also have international and domestic tournaments to consider. The CAF Super Cup and FIFA Intercontinental Cup represent opportunities for the club to compete on the global stage and add more prestigious honours to their collection.

The Carling Black Label Cup and Nedbank Cup also remain among the competitions that could provide the Tshwane-based side with additional silverware. These tournaments offer the team further chances to demonstrate its quality and reward its supporters with memorable performances.

Although their Champions League exit may have disappointed fans who expected the club to progress further, Sundowns still possess a squad with considerable experience in major competitions. Maintaining consistency, managing player fitness and responding positively to setbacks will be crucial as they pursue their remaining objectives.

Cardoso’s message serves as a reminder that success should not be measured by performance in a single competition. With several trophies still within reach, the team must quickly redirect its attention towards the challenges ahead rather than allow its continental disappointment to affect its domestic and international ambitions.

For Sundowns supporters, the remaining months of the season could still bring plenty of excitement. However, winning multiple trophies will require strong performances, tactical discipline and determination throughout the campaign.

The big question now is how many trophies Mamelodi Sundowns can realistically secure before the season concludes. Their response to the Champions League setback could play a significant role in determining whether they finish the campaign with several titles or fall short of their ambitions.
