Mamelodi Sundowns Player Ratings: Sirino sensational as Zwane makes costly mistake against Sekhukhune United

Untroubled in the first half as Downs were dominating the match.

Williams was beaten hands down by Linda Mntambo after his defence was exposed just after the restart. He then made two good saves to keep Sekhukhune at bay.

A livewire on the right flank.

Mudau contributed well in both defence and attack. He should have scored when he was set up by Themba Zwane in the first half, but he missed the target.

Looked good when pushing forward on the left flank.

However, Modiba seemed to lack a yard of pace on occasion when defending, but he formed a good partnership with Gaston Sirino on the left wing.

Played much better than his central defensive partner Mandela.

De Reuck dealt with offensive threats adequately and displayed great passes to enable Downs' build-up play. He is surely Downs' best centre back at the moment.

Tormented by Tshegofatso Mabsa.

Mandela often found himself out of place against Sekhukhune's right-wing players. He gave Mabasa space to set up Linda Mntambo for the equalising goal.

Operated in a deeper role in midfield with Andile Jali benched.

Mokoena was solid defensively, making timely clearances and reading Sekhukhune's movements intelligently. However, his impact waned towards the end of the game.

Impressive on his return to the team.

Mkhulise was strong in possession and impeded Babina Noko's movement with good tackles. He also combined well with his teammates when he pushed forward.

A creative hub in midfield.

Zwane ran the show for Sundowns and troubled Sekhukhune with his runs and passing having been involved in the build-up to the visitors' goal. However, he lost possession in the build-up to Downs conceding.

Sensational outing.

Sirino was a constant threat on the wings - beating his markers with ease and often delivered dangerous crosses into the box which saw him grab an assist when Peter Shalulile scored from his cross.

Looked a bit off the pace.

Maema failed to impose himself and he lost possession way too easily in the final third a couple of times. He was substituted toward the end of the game.

Continued his scoring form.

Shalulile's movement was good throughout the game as he interchanged positions with his fellow front three which unsettled the Sekhukhune defence. He positioned himself well when he scored.

Introduced in the 74th minute and he didn't pose much of a threat to the hosts' defence with chances not falling for him in Babina Noko's box.

Sipho Mbule, Thapelo Morena. Lesedi Kapinga, and Lyle Lakay were all introduced in the 83rd minute and it was too late to warrant a rating.
