Mamelodi Sundowns Continue Their Winnings Ways Against Stellenbosch FC! It was a very emotional match for the hosts.
Sundowns played their first match since the tragic death of Anele Ngcongca. It was a match filled with emotions from them.
Goals from their front three, Peter Shalulile, Kermit Erasmus and Themba Zwane, were enough to dispatch of Stellenbosch.
The Sundowns players paid tribute to their fallen soldier as they raised Anele Ngcongca’s shirt during their goal celebrations.
Manqoba Mngqithi of Sundowns thanked Stellenbosch for partaking in the commemoration of Ngcongca’s life before and after the match.
“I just want to thank Stellenbosch in support of our celebration for Anele’s life. We really appreciate. It is not easy for them and their sponsors to allow themselves a shirt with Anele,” he told SuperSport TV.
“But they did with open arms and we really appreciate it as Sundowns because it is very important for us to celebrate the life of Anele because this is a legend that has done well for this country-50 caps in the national team and so many trophies for Sundowns, the Champions League performances for Genk. He really deserves the respect that the club is giving him”
Mngqithi was very happy with how their front three continued to grow together on the pitch.
“But you know the quality that Kermit will present you with it in terms of scoring goals, but the good thing I like more from Kermit and Peter is that in as much as they are scoring goals even ‘Mshishi’ in that space they are also prepared to share with others because Kermit could’ve easily decided to take a shot there but he decided to lay it back for ‘Mshishi’.
“The same thing happened last week Kermit played almost the same ball for ‘Mshishi’ on the inside and Peter Shalulile played two balls for ‘Mshishi’ and that atmosphere of brother is more important where in as much as we are all on the race but we make sure we play as a team and play for one another because this is a marathon and we’ve just completed the five kilometre out of the 30 kilometre we still have so when everybody works what we’re trying to achieve. We’re all encouraged.” Mngqithi added on.
