Mamelodi Sundowns sharpshooter Peter Shalulile looks set to defend his Golden Boots award after the Namibian netted a brace when the runway leaders crushed Royal AM 5-1 at Loftus Versfeld Stadium.
Sundowns coach Rulani Mokwena’s intentions were clear as he sent out the same team that started and helped to annihilate Egyptian giants Al Ahly 5-2 in the Caf Champions League clash at the venue.However, he was forced to make an early change after defender Grant Kekana collided with his goalkeeper Ronwen Williams and had to be replaced by Brian Onyango on 13 minutes.
The youngster is now the joint second-highest goal scorer in the league alongside SuperSport United’s Bradley Grobler.Things went from bad to worse for the men from KwaZulu-Natal as former Sundowns player Nascimento scored an own goal six minutes later while attempting a pass back to his goalkeeper Xolani Ngcobo.After that it was Sundowns who dominated the game. Shalulile scored a stunning goal three minutes before half time as Masandawana enjoyed a three-goal lead at the interval.
