Mamelodi Sundowns Crowned Absa Premiership Champions
Mamelodi Sundowns were crowned Absa Premiership champions for the third season in a row following a 3-0 win over Black Leopards at Dobsonville Stadium on Saturday afternoon.
All the Brazilians’ goals were scored by Lebohang Maboe and the club finished the season with 59 points, two clear of rivals Kaizer Chiefs who could only manage a 1-1 draw against Baroka FC.
Sundowns subsequently won “La Decima”, a 10th league title in the Premier Soccer League era.
Defeat condemns Leopards to the promotion/relegation playoffs where they will battle Ajax Cape Town and Tshakhuma Tsha Madzivhandila for a place in South Africa’s top-flight next season.
Meanwhile, Kaizer Chiefs’ Absa Premiership title hopes went up in smoke after they were held 1-1 by Baroka at the Bidvest Stadium.
