Mosimane, who believes that Casablanca have started with their mind games, revealed that they had to start by looking for a training field which is something that is expected to be handled by the home side which is the North Africans.

Based on CAF rules, the hosts must confirm arrival time for the visitors, book them a luxury bus and give them a training venue before their encounter.

We had a problem with the training pitch, but we are used to this,” said Mosimane as quoted by Soccer Laduma.

“We managed to get ourselves a pitch because Wydad could not get us one even though it is the norm that the home team should get you a pitch. But let’s no go into that, it’s not important.

“What is important is that we found a pitch, even though it is not the best of the best. But it is the best in that space and we’ve got to use what we have and focus.”
