'It's 11 vs 11, Sundowns will do well'
It's nearly time for the Betway Premiership champions Mamelodi Sundowns to face the ultimate test at the FIFA Club World Cup in the USA.
Sundowns, known as 'The Brazilians,' jetted out of the OR Tambo International Airport last Sunday before camping in Florida.
The tournament will feature the world's biggest clubs, such as Real Madrid, Manchester City, and Paris Saint-Germain, holders of the UEFA Champions League.

The Brazilians in Group F will battle Bundesliga powerhouse Borussia Dortmund, the Brazilian giants Fluminense, and Ulsan HD from South Korea.
'All these teams are quality teams. They've done very well to be there, but Sundowns is a good team, and they can do well against them,' Feutmba told KickOff .
Rumours: Kaizer Chiefs have signed these four players
'In football, it's not about where you come from, it's always about your desire to win a game. When I was playing for Cameroon in the 1990 World Cup, we beat Argentina when nobody expected us to. We did it because of the mindset and spirit.
'It's 11 against 11. It depends on how you prepare, it depends on the stage going into that game. So Sundowns have a team good enough to do well there.
'Most of the Sundowns players are the national team players, so they have what it takes to get out of that group alive. So the country will benefit a lot from the experience they will gain in this tournament.
'I know Sundowns will do well. Football is football. It's played the same way everywhere. They will get out of their group, Sundowns; they have the team,' Feutmba concluded.
