It looks like there is no stopping unbeaten Mamelodi Sundowns in the DStv Premiership as the Brazilians won their 13th match of the season when they beat struggling Chippa United 2-1 at Mdantsane’s Sisa Dukashe Stadium in East London on Monday afternoon.
Goals by Themba Zwane and Peter Shalulile gave the log-leaders the win to take their tally to 46 points having won 13 times and drawn seven. The Brazilians took the lead in the 16th minute when Zwane slotted in a penalty after Chilli Boys defender Riaan Hanamub had fouled Aubrey Modiba inside the box. That was Zwane’s ninth goal of the season.
The Chilli Boys pulled one back through Augustine Kwem in the 49th minute. Kwem beat Denis Onyango following a pass from Gregory Damons.
The ever alert Shalulile netted his ninth goal when he headed in Sundowns’ second strike in the 74th minute.
