Downs In An African Football League Of Their Own

Jealousy, dislike and banter aside, you gotta love watching Sundowns play. How they negotiate their way out from the back under such immense pressure, away from home nogal, is something of a marvel to watch. When Zungu was introduced in the second half against Wydad, it gave freedom to Mokoena to take the game by the scruff of its neck and he mastered that to the tee, resulting in that vital away goal. Yes, they lost 2-1. It was a game not to miss as it was firecrackers everywhere. Other PSL teams can learn a thing or two from them. And, oh boy, did I tell you they are in a league of their own!? Imagine the competitive football we can be treated to if other local big guns from Soweto can match them. On another note, the Carling Knockout is teaching us something. The biggest upset is Pirates getting knocked out by Richards Bay.
