The story

Themba Zwane made his first start of the new league season in Mamelodi Sundowns' narrow win over Kaizer Chiefs, producing a classy performance from the middle of the park.

His opposite number, Mduduzi Shabalala may have walked away as a loser on the day but can keep his head up after a mature display in his third consecutive league start under Nasreddine Nabi.

Chiefs suffered their first defeat of the season after squandering an early lead to lose 2-1 to Downs in front of a sold-out FNB Stadium on Saturday afternoon.

Amakhosi got off to a flyer start when striker Ranga Chivaviro broke the deadlock in the ninth minute, but Lucas Ribeiro drew Bafana ba Style level just after the half-hour mark, before Iqraam Rayners completed the comeback win six minutes later.

Manqoba Mngqithi's side made it three wins from three in the new Betway Premiership season to remain at league's summit, while the Soweto giants dropping to fourth place on the table.

Zwane humbled his former teammate and Chiefs attacker, Gaston Sirino by winning the ball back from the Uruguayan before leaving him for dead in typical 'Mshishi' fashion:
