Sundowns navigate a tricky encounter with Chippa United to collect maximum points before hoping onto the flight for clash with Wydad in Casablanca on FridayMamelodi Sundowns came from a goal down to beat Chippa United 3-2 at Loftus Versfeld on Tuesday afternoon and move level at the top of the Premiership table‚ just behind leaders Orlando Pirates on goal difference.
Chippa‚ with suspensions‚ injuries and an eye on Friday’s home game against Cape Town City‚ made eight changes from the weekend Nedbank Cup semifinal loss to Kaizer Chiefs and sat waiting for chances on the counter-attack‚ which came more frequently than they might have initially anticipated. But Chippa then retreated onto the back foot and invited Sundowns to come at them in a dangerous ploy which ultimately proved costly.
