Speaking after the game, Head Coach Mosimane congratulated the Rayon Sports side, praising the team and coach for their performances in the first leg.
"First I want to say, congratulations to the coach, a good game. Congratulations to Rayon Sports, I think they played very well. A different game, from my opinion it was a game of two halves, I think the first half we took it, but I think the second half, probably the coach gave a good team talk there, they came out stronger in the second half," Mosimane told the media after the game.
"I was not happy with my team in the first half. I think my two centre backs and the goalkeeper played well to defend against the fast attack of Rayon Sports.

"The attack was dangerous, they had a good attack, the play on the left with Tshabalala, they had a good speed behind our defenders. They are a good team," he added.
Sundowns will host Rayon Sports on March 18, for the second leg of the first round of the CAF Champions League.
"I expect a tough game, was this easy? It was tough here football is like that. It is going to be tough. But I don't know how Rayon Sports play away, so we are home," Mosimane said.
