Sundowns Mamelodi coach Pitso mosimane says his charges were dealt with effectively Kaizer bosses strengths in your 1-0 win on Thursday.
Gaston Sirino’s goal in the first half at Orlando Stadium was enough to secure three points for the Brazilians and tie them with the Chiefs, who remain leaders thanks to their superior goal difference.
Mosimane noted that the Chiefs’ main threat was long balls into dangerous areas, as well as crosses from the outside, and acknowledges that his players did well to deny those threats.
“We are not on top of the log,” Mosimane said. SuperSport TV. “[Kaizer Chiefs] they’re still there, so these guys have points and the [goal difference]. So now we have to work on the targets, which is still difficult. So, it’s still in their hands and not ours.
“[The PSL title is] Not decided because if you get too excited and don’t understand how to win the championship. You will think ‘oh Polokwane will win, oh Baroka would win’. This is not the case, but the experience of the Champions League helped us today and we managed to sustain [Chiefs’ pressure]. This was a Champions League match.
“It was two different halves. We made it difficult for ourselves. It was difficult for us. I think Anele [Ngcongca] He should have scored or crossed the ball there and Gastón faced the goalkeeper, but he didn’t know what to do.
“Those two moments, those are goals, that’s where we made it difficult, but we survived, we answered what the question was. And what was the question? To throw, they always threw the balls inside.
“So if the ball is thrown, and they put Mathoho in there, and if you close the sides, because there were crosses from the sides, it’s on and [Anthony] Akumu in midfield can head the ball and also [Yagan] Sasman will launch it. So we managed to deal with their strengths which are aerial balls to be thrown, cross balls, corners with which they have traumatized the entire league. We take care of them and that’s it, nothing more. “
