Sundowns come from a goal down to beat Durban City 3-1

Mamelodi Sundowns returned to winning ways in the Premier Soccer League when they came from a goal down to defeat Durban City 3-1 at Lucas Moripe Stadium on Saturday night.

Sundowns were eager to claim maximum points after their previous outing ended in a 1-1 draw with Marumo Gallants.

City opened the scoring when Joslin Kamatuka scored 13 minutes after kick-off. Marcelo Allende and Tashreeq Matthews found the back of the net for the hosts in the first half.

The visitors had an opportunity to go to the halftime break level, but Kamatuka failed to convert from the penalty spot as Sundowns’ goalkeeper produced a fine save on the stroke of halftime.

Iqraam Rayners continued his rich form in front of goals as he scored in the second half to stretch the lead for Sundowns.

Despite the victory, Sundowns remain in second place with 18 points, one point behind table toppers Sekhukhune United.

Sekhukhune defeated Golden Arrows with a last-minute goal by Bradley Grobler earlier on Saturday. Babina Noko have played one less game than Sundowns.
