Ungimangazile uDu Preez ngamagoli akawashayile. Kunzima ukuvimba uma kuzovela isikhala sokugijima ngemuva kwezitobha. Siyazi iSundowns imaka kude nebhokisi, besifuna ukuhlasela ngabadlali abaningi, okuyiqhinga elisebenzile. Ngiyambongela u-Ashley ngamagoli akhe.

Ushaye ingcwenga yegoli uJayden. Kuyajabulisa ukubona abadlali abasebancane beshaya amagoli kwiSundowns. Bobabili bakhulele eValley, eStellenbosch. Usuku olukhulu eqenjini,” kusho uBarker ecashunwa abeSuperSport TV.
