‘AmaZulu must become giants’
Growing up, the only connection Sandile Zungu had with football was by virtue of being a staunch Orlando Pirates fan.
Zungu went on to play for the University of Cape Town as a centre forward through his tertiary years when he was studying for a BsC in Mechanical Engineering.
