Mamelodi Sundowns started their title defence on a positive note defeating SuperSport United 2-0 in a Betway Premiership encounter at Loftus Versfeld in Pretoria on Tuesday evening.
Following a goalless first half, the Brazilians scored twice after the hour mark to make sure that they had a perfect start.
The Tshwane giants opened the scoring through new recruit Iqraam Rayners in the 62nd minute after he was fed by Themba Zwane. Brazilian Lucas Ribeiro Costa put matters beyond Matsatsantsa a Pitori’s reach when he netted the Brazilians’ second goal in the 65th minute.
