Despite it not being one of their best displays this season, Mamelodi Sundowns coach Rulani Mokwena has revealed the one positive that has come from their taxing Sudanese trip.

Barring the controversy involving club liaison Khaled Ali, Sundowns' hard-fought draw against Al Hilal ensured that they finish top of group B standings to qualify for the CAF Champions League quarter finals.
Sundowns nearly let it slip towards the death, but inspirational Ronwen Williams atoned for his earlier error by saving a spot kick from Al Hilal captain Ather El Tahir in the second minute of stoppage time.
"Difficult match, difficult conditions. We take the point, and we go home. We could have won the game and it's a pity we didn't win it, so we have to go again, try to improve and make the team better.
"Congratulations to the group for finishing first, I think mathematically now we are on top of the group, so that's the positive that we can take out of it," he told journalists.
Sundowns' next encounter will be in a fortnight's time as they host group B bottom-dwellers Coton Sport on 31 March.
