Bidvest Wits midfielder, Sibusiso Vilakazi, heaped praise on his teammates following their 1-0 win over Mamelodi Sundowns.

The Bafana Bafana midfielder scored the only goal of the game to sink the Brazilians and he believed it was important to get the win on home soil.

"It was tough indeed, credit must be given to my teammates as well, I think it was a great effort from all around the field of play," Vilakazi said after the game.

"We fought together, we pushed together, we defended very well, I think there were a few times we let them in but credit must go my teammates for giving us three points.

"We were playing at home, it was important for us to defend, I mean this is our territory, and towards the end we gave it our all and we were able to come out with the three points.

"At this important stage we have to take it one game at a time, we push together as a team, games are coming thick and fast and the momentum as well, going forward, I think it's great for the team, so we will take it one game at a time."
