Golden Arrows coach admits his players didn't come to the party in Sundowns match

Despite being thumped 4-0 by Mamelodi Sundowns in the DStv Premiership match at Lucas Moripe Stadium on Tuesday, Golden Arrows coach Vusumuzi Vilakazi feels Masandawana have not hit their best gear this season.

The Brazilians maintained their 100% record when they beat Arrows 4-0 to move to nine points on the table to take an early lead in the title race.

But Vilakazi believes they are not where they were last campaign, suggesting that should they hit their gear, it will be difficult for any team to stop them again. "They were flying last season and in the past two games that they played, we saw that there is only one thing that they are trying to do better and it is to win the game irrespective of playing well or not.

"But they did well today. But they are very close and not at the standard of what they did last season.""Not one of the best, not the results we were looking for. But I think I must be honest, we didn't come on board. We were just terrible in both aspects of the game, which is defensive and also offensive," he said.
