Mamelodi Sundowns midfielder Andile Jali has been selected in the Caf Champions League Team of the Week for his impressive display against Wydad Casablanca.

The 29-year-old’s stellar performance against Wydad earned him the Man-of-the-Match award following the Brazilians’ goalless draw in Morocco last weekend.

The former Orlando Pirates playmaker is the only South African in the team and has been selected in a three-man midfield alongside Al Ahly duo Amr El Solia and Mohammed Magdy Afsha.

The defence is made up of Wael Gomaa (Ah Ahly), Abdel Kader Bedrane (Esparance de Tunis), Abdllatif Noussir (Wydad Casablanca), Sanad Al-Warfali (Al Ahli Tripoli) and goalkeeper Achraf Krir (Etoile de Sahel).

Meanwhile, the strikers include Karimi Aribi (Etoile de Sahel), Anice Badri (Esperance de Tunis) and Achraf Bencharki (Zamelek).

Jali will be hoping to continue his fine form when Sundowns take on Stellenbosch FC at the Loftus Versfeld Stadium in the Absa Premiership on Wednesday before facing Maritzburg United in the Telkom Knockout Cup final on Saturday.
