FOOTBALL NEWS -The Absa Premiership title remains up for grabs, but Mamelodi Sundowns are looking more and more likely to claim the trophy after they picked up a fourth successive league win.
The Brazilians are three points clear of second-placed Orlando Pirates, who came from behind to defeat AmaZulu 2-1 away on Sunday thanks to goals from Musa Nyatama and Thabo Qalinge, but Pitso Mosimane’s side can re-establish a six-point buffer when they play a game in hand in midweek.
The weekend’s matches began on Saturday evening, with Sundowns easing to a 2-0 win over Bidvest Wits thanks to goals from Themba Zwane and Sibusiso Vilakazi – both of which were assisted by the excellent Percy Tau – while the derby between Free State Stars and Bloemfontein Celtic ended in a 1-1 draw.
