He also highlighted how the club has the hunger in the competition because it's been a title that they haven't been able to win for a long time.

"It’s a very difficult game but it gives the opportunity also for the boys to start off with a strong side and try to get good results and get momentum to take us throughout the season,” said Onyango according to the Sundowns website.

The goalkeeper also made it known that the MTN8 is a cup competition and not a league game so the expectations will definitely be much more different. According to The Citizen, he said:

"Last season it was a league match, those are two different competitions and the approaches are not the same.”

Mamelodi Sundowns have signed a few players during the transfer window and Onyango is looking forward to a bit of healthy competition amongst the players.
