Sundowns were in Christmas mode - Mngqithi complains despite Pirates win

The 49-year-old tactician hailed his side's strength in depth after Masandawana opened a three-point lead at the top of the PSL standings

Mamelodi Sundowns head coach Manqoba Mngqithi was left to rue his side's missed chances even though they secured a win over Orlando Pirates on Saturday afternoon.

Brian Mandela Onyango's first-half goal inspired Masandawana to a 1-0 win over the Buccaneers in a PSL match which was played in Tshwane.

Mngqithi explained that the game turned out to be just the way they had expected along with his lieutenants Rhulani Mokwena and Steve Komphela.
