Mamelodi Sundowns head coach, Pitso Mosimane explains that drawing against Orlando Pirates is a big point for his side.

Sundowns are still top of the Absa Premiership league standings despite playing to a draw last night at the Orlando Stadium, holding a two-point advantage over second-placed Bidvest Wits, while the Brazilians still have a game in hand.

Speaking to the media after the game, Mosimane explained what it meant to snatch all three points against Kaizer Chiefs while settling for just a point in their recent encounters against Pirates and The Students. 

“There are big games that you would love to win, you saw me right down the line at FNB when Lebohang scored the goal, I knew how big those three points were, big,” Mosimane explained. 

“I knew the point that we took against Bidvest Wits, it’s a big point… the point tonight is a big point, so if you manage those ones, of course, you want to win them, but what does the game say, the game says Orlando Pirates is pressing you, they are giving their best but you must remember, Pirates had to win tonight, they can’t draw, they have to win… So we don’t have to win,” he added.
