Mamelodi Sundowns head coach Rulani Mokwena says the team will try and go for the 'Invincible' campaign next year after losing on the final day of the season.
Sundowns' unbeaten record for the campaign ended at 29 games after losing 1-0 to Cape Town City at Loftus Versfeld Stadium.
Sundowns also missed out on the chance to break Kaizer Chiefs' record of least amount of goals conceded (11), after they conceded 11 thanks to City's goal on Saturday.

"Of course, we would have loved to do it a different way. But it's bitter-sweet, you know I always say man plan but God decides and, in the end, if you want to do it a certain way, then God decides that this is not meant to be that way," Mokwena told SuperSport after the game.
"You got to accept you know, and the first thing you got to do is to congratulate Cape Town City for winning the match. Congratulations to Eric (Tinkler) and the entire football club of Cape Town City. But it's also not to forget that we are the champions, seven time in a row.
"The most iconic trophy and championship for this football club, it will go down in history and thank you to the yellow nation for coming through to witness this. The support was incredible.
"They are so important, we do everything for them, we play for them, we suffer for them, we sacrifice and we happy that we delivered the most iconic trophy in the history of this club so as I said even in my pre-match.
"We would've loved to go undefeated but it's never been done before and that shows how difficult it is and for us to even go 29 games its incredible and I'm so proud of these players. We will go again next season and try again," Mokwena said.
