Masandawana narrowly escaped victorious in their CAF Champions League away assignment in Democratic Republic of Congo, overcoming AS Maniema Union 2-1 on Saturday afternoon.
After the encounter, a Maniema Union youth player got up close and personal with Sundowns stars Teboho Mokoena, Grant Kekana and Peter Shalulile, with Mokoena handing him a pair of his personalised PUMA Ultra boots.
The youngster, named Didier Dgaden, took to Instagram to show off his new boots gifted to him by Mokoena and went on to thank Kekana and Shalulile for the kindness they showed to him.
Take a look:

Shalulile's heroics against Maniema on Saturday saw Sundowns clinch second place in Group B, seeing them progress to the quarter-finals of the CAF Champions League.
Along with their class on the pitch, the aforementioned youngster will forever remember the kind-hearted gesture from Mokoena and his Downs teammates on Saturday and perhaps cheer them on for the rest of the campaign.
