Mamelodi Sundowns enjoyed a comfortable victory on the field this past weekend, defeating Orlando Pirates 4-1 and extending their lead at the top of the league standings to nine points. While Sundowns have been dominant for years, they have faced a more competitive challenge this season from an improving Pirates team.
This recent win serves as a reminder of Sundowns' overall quality and sets the stage for their upcoming participation in the FIFA Club World Cup, scheduled from June 15th to July 13th. Adding to the excitement surrounding Sundowns, eagle-eyed viewers may have noticed new sideline signage featuring the name of global agency Roc Nation Sports International. Sundowns have been partnered with Roc Nation, the talent agency founded by US artist Jay-Z, for the past four years, receiving support and services as part of the deal. This partnership proves particularly beneficial as Sundowns will be spending time in Miami and Orlando during the Club World Cup, leveraging Roc Nation's strong US connections.Despite the impressive win against Pirates, coach Miguel Cardoso remains focused and emphasizes that the title race is far from over. He acknowledges the increased responsibility following the victory, reminding his team to maintain their focus and deliver their best in every match. Cardoso stresses the importance of respecting their current advantage while acknowledging the long road ahead
