The centreback, who drew attention with bright performances when a developmental Bafana Bafana won the Cosafa Cup in Gqeberha in August, was beaten to a header by Grant Kekana for Sundowns' opening goal. Dube allowed Peter Shalulile in front of him too easily for Downs' second, and was taken off by Baxter in the 68th minute.
“And you can imagine yourself how he's feeling. I mean, everything you've [the questioner] said [on Dube's mistakes] is factual - it's not pulled out of thin air. “But it wasn't only Austin making the mistakes. If we'd scored a few goals we wouldn't have had the same pressure on us. If we'd set up better at the set play it wouldn't have put him in a position where he really had two players to keep an eye on.
