Downs ladies maintained their unbeaten start to the season
The Ladies team have earned nineteen points in the seven matches they played this season and remains top of the log.
Mamelodi Sundowns Ladies maintained their unbeaten start to the season after claiming a draw against their closest rivals JVW FC this past weekend.
The Ladies team earned nineteen points in the seven matches they played this season and remain top of the log.
Melinda Kgadiete, one of the new signings at the club, has been instrumental in helping Masandawana win their games and is amongst the top goal scorers in the Super League.
She said that helping the team to win games was important to her as a player.
“It is very important to score goals. To win the game you have to score goals and as a player, you always want to contribute or help the team to win.”
The Brazilians will come across determined First Touch Academy who sits third in the league, however, according to Kgadiete, the defending champions are firm and have their eyes fixed on collecting maximum points.
“The mood is good and we are looking forward to the game, we are going for a win because the past weekend we lost some points. Now we are going for the kill.
“Remember we are defending champions so we have to keep to our standard. We need these three points more than anything, we want to sit in position number one from now on until the end of the season,” she said.
Downs coach Jerry Tshabalala believes last week’s draw came as a perfect reminder about the level of competition in the league.
“It’s key for us as a team to bounce back from last week’s result. The previous game’s result came as a wake-up call and it made the girls realise that other teams are improving and are ready to challenge us. We have dusted ourselves off and are ready for this one,” he said.
