Soccer Laduma rates the individual performances of the Mamelodi Sundowns players, following their 5-0 win over Polokwane City.

 

Here are the ratings:

 

Denis Onyango: 6

 

It proved to be a quiet evening for the Mamelodi Sundowns shot-stopper, who had to be replaced in the 80th minute through injury.

 

Siyanda Zwane: 6

 

Zwane put in a solid showing down the right flank, both defensively and on the attack.

 

Alje Schut: 6

 

Was hardly troubled by the Polokwane attackers and was substituted after the hour-mark.

 

Ramahlwe Mphahlele: 7

 

Continues to impress in the heart of the defence alongside Schut, and frustrated the the likes of Puleng Tlolane and Essua Kanyenda.

 

Tebogo Langerman: 6

 

Langerman put in a solid showing in the left full back position and hardly put a foot wrong.

 

Hlompho Kekana: 6

 

Was solid sitting in front of the back four but didn't see much of him going forward.

 

Bongani Zungu: 6

 

Much like Kekana, Zungu sat deep for large parts of the 90 minutes and only got forward on a few occasions.

 

Themba Zwane: 7

 

Looked lively from the start in a more central role and was involved in quite a few of Sundowns' attacks.

 

Anthony Laffor: 8

 

Sundown's best player on the pitch, Laffor got his name on the score-sheet with a fine finish and also picked up three assists.

 

Khama Billiat: 8

 

Another impressive showing from the skillful winger, as he bagged a delightful brace, with his second the goal, being the pick of the bunch.

 

Cuthbert Malajila: 7

 

Malajila was a constant threat and opened the scoring with a composed finish, before setting up Laffor for his goal.

 

Substitutes:

 

Thabo Nthethe: 6

 

Brought on to replace Schut in the 60th minute and did well alongside Mphahlele.

 

Rodney Ramagalela: 7

 

Replaced Malajila in the 70th minute and scored his first goal of the season with a powerful effort from the edge of the area.

 

Kennedy Mweene: NA

 

Hardly had anything to do during his 10 minute cameo.
