Young Africans coach Miguel Gamondi had a message for his former employers Mamelodi Sundowns ahead of their CAF Champions League tie on Saturday.
Gamondi was a co-coach with Neil Tovey and helped the side win the league title during the 2006/2007 campaign.
The Argentine tactician is now looking to make history and become the first Yanga coach to advance to the semi-finals of the Champions League.

"Sundowns is one of the biggest teams performing in the continent along with Al Ahly, no doubt they are the best on the continent," Gamondi said, as per the CAF website.
"They are where they are today because of the consistency they have shown over the years. I really like the style of play of Sundowns. They play their type of football that I like.
"I was coach at Sundowns, and I know what they like to do and what they are building now is not only important for South Africa, but for African continent because they it’s an advert for Africa.
"For us, it is probably going to be the toughest opponent we will get but at the same time it will be a great learning experience for Young Africans to play with a quality side and technical staff.
"I think this will be a great advert for African football."
This will be the first-ever competitive meeting between the two sides and it will be Yanga's first appearance in the Champions league knockout stage.
