Ratings:

Denis Onyango: 7/10   Pulled off a superb save in the first half and late in the second half, while he was also a commanding figure in the box throughout the match.   Anele Ngcongca: 6.5/10   Most Esperance's attacks came down the right flank, but Ngcongca managed to hold on his own throughout the 90 minutes.    Motjeka Madisha: 7/10   Madisha was solid in the heart of the Sundowns defence and he did well to frustrate the Esperance attackers.   Bangaly Soumahoro: 6.5/0   Soumahoro made a couple rash challenges, but he was solid overall and denied the hosts any time on the ball in the final third.   Tebogo Langerman: 7/10   Langerman put in a fine showing on the night. He was defensively sound, and provided a real threat going forward.   Hlompho Kekana: 6.5/10   Didn't venture forward as much, but Kekana did well to protect the Sundowns back four as the only defensive player in the midfield.   Sibusiso Vilakazi: 6/10   Didn't see much of his attacking in the game, but he worked hard off the ball.   Themba Zwane: 6/10   Zwane was a bit sloppy in the first half. However, He did set up Sundowns' best chance of the game, and he did well defensively.   Percy Tau: 6/10   Hardly enjoyed a lot of time on the ball throughout, but he did squander Sundowns' best chance of the game in the first half.   Anthony Laffor: 6/10   Handed a start by Mosimane, but could hardly affect the game going forward due to Esperance's dominance but he did track back on a few occasions.   Yannick Zakri: 6/10    Much like Tau and Laffor, Zakri spent most of the game closing down the ball. Although, he was handful for the Esperance defenders whenever he was in possession of the ball.   Substitutes:   Thapelo Morena: NA   Replaced Laffor with 15 minutes remaining, but hardly affected he game in the attack.   Tiyani Mabunda: NA    Not on the field long enough to receive a rating.   Lucky Mohomi: NA
  Not on the field long enough to receive a rating.
