Weslians vow to crush unknown Red Lions
MBABANE - Manzini Wanderers have vowed to crush Lubombo Super League team Red Lions out of the SwaziBank Cup.
The two teams lock horns tomorrow at Somhlolo Stadium in what will be a main match to be preceded by a clash between another Super League team, Malkerns FC vs Hellenic.
The Weslians PRO Vuyile Dlamini urged the team supporters to come in their numbers and literally paint the stadium maroon and white.
"We are brining a full strength squad for the match. And we are not taking our opponents lightly because they are a closed book to us. Our mission is to go all the way to the finals," he said.
Asked to comment about the injured Felix Badenhorst, he said "The policy in the team is that a player who has not trained for two days automatically falls out of the team. However, everything regarding whether he plays or not will rest with the coach."
The Super League team owned by Mayiwane MP David ‘Lion’ Shongwe has boldly declared war against the Weslians. They even requested to forfeit their home ground advantage at Mhlume Stadium for a venue closer to their superior opponents.
