Mamelodi Sundowns have been threatened that their remarkable winning streak will come to and on Friday in Garoua.
Sundowns travel to Cameroon's northern region city of Garoua for a Group B CAF Champions League date against Cotonsport at the Stade Omnisport Roumde Adjia (18h00 SA time).

Retired goalkeeper Patrick Tignyemb spent three years at Cotonsport before moving to South Africa where he spent a dozen years earning legendary status at Bloemfontein Celtic.
"Trust me they are a very dangerous team and can play as well," Tignyemb tells KickOff.com from Cameroon where he is now the goalkeeper coach at Tonnerre KC Yaounde.
"They can play football and the weather will unfortunately not be favourable for Sundowns because Garoua is hell.
"Garoua is an unfriendly place for anyone visiting there even us as Cameroonians so to beat them there is never easy.
"During the warm-up you can drink four bottles of water so that is why I say that place is hell.
"When I was in South Africa, I was told Limpopo is hot but that is nothing compared to the hell of Garoua.
"Playing in Garoua is not for the faint-hearted because you can already be tired in the hotel.
"The game will end with a score of Cotonsport 4 and Sundowns 1.
"Sundowns will have no chance to win in Garoua.
"I played for Cotonsport and I can tell you that they are the most professional team here in Cameroon based on our standards.
"They are very organised and are more like Sundowns and (Orlando) Pirates here in Cameroon.
"What I can guarantee is that it will be a difficult game for Sundowns.
"However, this being football anything can happen because the game is being played at 17h00 Cameroon time and by then it is still very hot in the first half," says Tignyemb.
While Sundowns overcame Al Hilal from Sudan, Cotonsport's start was delayed due to Al Ahly's FIFA Club World Cup commitments.
