Sundowns held by mignons

Sundows were held to a 1-1 draw at Seychelles by St Mitchel United on Saturday.

Sundowns were held to a one-all draw against Seychelles side St Mitchel United in their first match of the CAF Champions league on Saturday at the Estade Linité of Roche Caiman in Seychelles.

The Brazilians dominated for the most part of the match with Katlego Mashego missing most of their chances. Despite being on the back foot for most part of the game, St Mitchel managed to take the lead midway through the second half. With time almost running out, Khama Billiat scored the equalising goal for Sundowns and saved them from embarrassment as St Mitchel held on for a draw.

Sundowns will host the return leg on 28 February as they look to advance to the second round of the competition. The last time Sundowns were in the CAF Champions league, they were eliminated in the third round by eventual champions Al Ahly.
