McCarthy: Arrows not as good as Downs

By Christopher Maqashu:

Cape Town City coach Benni McCarthy is hoping that his side can bounce back from Sundays’ Nedbank Cup Quarterfinal exit at the hands of Mamelodi Sundowns.

City went down 2-1 against the side of Chloorkop.

The Citizens will have to quickly switch focus on the League when they host Golden Arrows at the Cape Town Stadium this is according to McCarthy.

The former Bafana Bafana international strongly believes the game against Arrows will be completely different to the one they face against Sundowns.

“We got to switch on back quickly, switch our focus as Golden Arrows in coming,” He said.

“We are looking to take this game (against Sundowns in the Nedbank Cup) performance into Wednesday because I don’t think Golden Arrows will be good as Sundowns.

“If we play like this, we stand a chance and chance for us to get back to winning way again.”

City currently finding themselves in sixth place on the log table with 34 points and a win will further strengthen they place inside the top eight position come end of the season.
