South African international Bongani Zungu has spoken out about the possibility of facing Mamelodi Sundowns in AmaZulu FC's next match in the Premier Soccer League.

According to iDiskiTimes, Zungu shared his thoughts about facing Sundowns in his debut for AmaZulu in the Betway Premiership in an interview.

The 32-year-old midfielder had a good time with the Brazilians, but his contract was not renewed last summer, which led to his departure.

"It's going be a difficult match; I know Sundowns very well. I've got a lot of friends there. That's the club I played for, for many years," the former Rangers midfielder said ahead of the game.

"The team has been doing well before I even signed here. I watched many games and liked what the guys were doing and the football they were playing. I think it will be a very intriguing game because, from my view, both teams have similarities. They play what you call modern football.

"It's going to be a lovely match. We have to involve ourselves and want it more; if you want it more and you're more hungry on the day, you can match Sundowns.
