Quotes Playing AmaZulu is never easy of course but right now we need to shift our attention to the league game because obviously we suffered a loss against Arrows but we’re taking the positives from that game into the league game Of course it’s important to collect points at home because if you do that then you stand a good chance of doing well in the league. Aubrey Modiba urges Mamelodi Sundowns to bounce back against AmaZulu, August 2026,IOL, by Smiso Msomi I think what helps us most is the fact that we do have these conversations, we speak about winning the second star for ourselves, the fans and the club We try not to place any pressure on ourselves because when we do that we don’t perform to the best of our ability. The supporters obviously want the second star and we know and understand that so hopefully we’re going to be able to do that this time around.

Unfinished business ...’ Aubrey Modiba wants Hugo Broos to stay on as Bafana Bafana coach, July 2026,IOL,, by Smiso Msomi It brought back all the emotions from last season when we lost in the final I was relieved, and I'm happy to enjoy these big moments because, as a player, you want to participate in these big matches and do well for your tea We always want to do better than the season before. This time around, we have an advantage. Hopefully, going into that game, we can use that to our advantage. We also need to make sure we keep a clean sheet at the back; it's very important, We want to make the fans happy because they want it so badly, just as much as we do. We can't celebrate yet because we still have another game in Morocco, which is going to be difficult. We know the fans are going to cheer for them; we saw how they filled up the stadiums. They're going to have a different energy going into that game. Hopefully, the dreams we've had ever since we joined the team can finally come true. Modiba’s Loftus wonder goal eases pain of past CAF heartbreak: 'It brought back the emotions',June 2026, IOL by Zaaiher Adams The previous result does not matter. Right now, they just came back from a loss away from home They are at home (against us), so it will be a different approach. They still score goals. It shows we cannot take them lightly. We are going to have to defend and take our chances, because they can hurt us. They have done well (since returning to the top flight), and it shows they are doing something good. I am not expecting an easy game or a walk in the park. They’ve got pretty because good players. (Oswin) Appolis scored two goals against Cape Town Spurs, and they have the big striker Douglas Mapfumo, a target-man who can hold the ball well, and he scored in the previous game. We’ve got players who are able to put a good performance on the day so we can get the points. We must apply ourselves, make sure we do well Our preparations are going well. We started today after two days off, been going well, pushing hard at training, so we can keep on winning and keep the momentum going. We know that losing one game can hurt us badly. We must keep on doing what we’ve been doing and collect the points Mamelodi Sundowns’ Aubrey Modiba says getting a win over Polokwane City will be ‘no walk in the park, September 2022,IOL by Matshelane Mamabola External links Category:Soccer players from South Africa Category:Living people Category:1995 births
