The Brazilians now need a home win on Saturday to progress to the Champions League final.
“There are a lot of clubs that have won the Champions League more than us, and there are a lot of clubs that have pressure than us to win the Champions League every single year because they have done it more,” Mokwena said.
“Wydad are defending champions. There have been in the semi-finals many times in the last eight years, so that’s where we are.
"We just have to keep the best we can, we fight, we play well, and we do the best we can to represent this football club.
“We enjoy the opportunity because we know it doesn’t come to everybody, and it’s not for everybody, and we continue to work hard that’s what we have to continue doing, stay focused and keep our feet on the ground," Mokwena added.
