The head coach of Mamelodi Sundown of South Africa, Rulani Mokwena has mentioned Super Eagles winger Anayo Iwuala as a threat to his team's progress, BSNSports.com.ng reports.

Sundown were drawn to face CR Belouzidad of Algeria in the quarter-final of the CAF Champions League in the draw conducted on Wednesday.

While reacting to the draw, the coach said they are expecting a tough game in the quarter-final.

“It is a draw we accept with a lot of humility but also with a clear understanding that it is going to be very difficult,” Mokwena said.

“CR Belouizdad are a very good side, though they finished second in their group with 10 points. They have a good campaign, in the Champions League and their domestic league where they are on top of the log though they have played only 17 games.

They have good players. They play something similar to a 4-3-3 or 4-4-2 with a strong Nigerian striker upfront, Anayo Iwuala, and their top goalscorer with five goals, Mohamed Bakir", he told Time Lives
