“It is a bit difficult when you have the issue of goals‚ it is not in our hands but in Pirates’ hands.” BraMahlatse
The two sides are tied on 53 points at the summit but Pirates have a superior goal difference that could come into play if they end the season still equal on points.Mosimane suggested Sundowns are “still a team in construction”‚ and that they might have to settle for next year's PSL title.
“I am still going to say that we are a team in construction‚ we are feeling the departure of Khama Billiat and Percy Tau‚ but the boys keep on going. In the 2-1 win over Blacki Leopards on Tuesday in Thohoyandou‚ Sundowns conceded a goal in the closing stages of the match and Mosimane said it was not an ideal situation.“But you have to understand because the players are a little bit tired.“Sometimes‚ you can’t have the cake and eat it‚ you have to be a little bit grateful and don’t sound selfish.“They gave their best effort and it is humbling to see these boys fight like this with two Champions League programmes in one year.
