Mamelodi Sundowns won their 15th consecutive DStv Premiership match after beating rivals Orlando Pirates 1-0 at Orlando Stadium on Saturday.
Young sensation Cassius Mailula scored the only goal of the match as early as the fifth minute. Sundowns are undoubtedly on the verge of winning a record sixth consecutive title in the history of the PSL. They are now on 55 points.
ORLANDO PIRATES DOMINATE BUT MAMELODI SUNDOWNS CLINICAL
Sundowns coach Rhulani Mokwena admitted that Pirates had the upper hand in terms of the performances, but alluded that they created better opportunities.
“I thought Pirates dominated but we had the better chances. But congratulations to the players and everyone associated with the club,” he said.
His counterpart at Orlando Pirates Jose Riveiro believes they were punished through their own mistake.
“It was a very intense game from both teams. They punished us for our first mistake. I think we dominated the game from there but couldn’t get the result,” he told the media afterwards.
