Mamelodi Sundowns midfielder Themba Zwane believes that his teams victory in the Telkom Knockout could help inspire Downs to further silverware this season as they target the Absa Premiership and Caf Champions League.

The Brazilians came out ontop in a tight final on Saturday against Maritzburg United where two headed goal’s from Mauricio Affonso helped them come from behind to secure a 2-1 victory over the Team of Choice at the Moses Mabhida Stadium.

‘Mshishi’ has developed into one of coach Pitso Mosimane’s key men at Chloorkop and while he is targeting more trophies with the Brazilians, he also revealed that he would be interested in a move to Europe.

‘If the chance comes I will take it, why not?. I feel fresh but in terms of fitness I am still low but if I carry on playing these 90 minutes, the fitness will come up and the confidence will grow,’ Zwane told the media.

‘As long as the time allows me, I want to win as many cups as I can and at the moment I am trying to regain my form and my fitness and this season I am looking forward to winning the league and compete with the best players in the league.

‘Each and every season we look forward to lifting the trophy and we did it this time and it motivates us to play the next game and we are really happy to have won this trophy.

‘It will motivate us because we still have a chance to do well in the Champions League and we still have a chance to win the league so we need to fight and compete for it.’
