Sekhukhune United assistant coach MacDonald Makhubedu has praised the team's defence, and how the side managed to deal with some top strikers in the league.
In one of their most recent matches, Babina Noko managed to defeat Amakhosi at the Peter Mokaba Stadium and Makhubedu was pleased with how their defence performed.

Sekhukhune had also done well against Chiefs in the first round match, while they also defeated Orlando Pirates.
They drew the first match against Mamelodi Sundowns and lost the second one. Makhubedu has explained how the team's defence has managed to keep some of the league's strikers at bay, including Chiefs' Christian Saile and Pirates' Terrence Dzvukamanja.
"We have played against very good strikers before. For example, we have played against Saile from Chiefs whom I think is one of the fastest players and the most powerful attacker in the league. He is very quick and powerful but through our good defenders we managed to deal with him," he said.

"We played against Dzvukamanja. So, we have seasoned players at the back and we are a well coached team. I think with coach Morgan Gould who is our defensive coach, we have done well this season," the coach added.
