Mamelodi Sundowns Ladies have set the bar high in Hollywoodbets Super League as they have hit the 100-goal mark in the midweek fixture against Coal City Wizards.
This comes after the red-hot Brazilians hit nine past City Wizards Manchester at Lucas Moripe Stadium on Wednesday afternoon.
A hat-trick by Boitumelo Rabale, braces courtesy of Miche Minnies and Hlogi Mashego, and goals from Rhoda Mulaudzi and Thembelihle Masibi were enough for Banyana Ba Style to seal their big win on the day.
As things stand, Masandawana have have scored a massive 104 goals in 26 matches thus far.
Downs Ladies came into this game averaging an amazing 3.8 goals per game. Who can match that in the South African women’s league? Nonetheless, that’s a topic for another day.
The African Queens have gone seven games unbeaten [straight wins], and have gone 630 minutes without conceding a goal.
So far, the defending champions have only conceded 11 goals this campaign and have kept 17 clean sheets.
Currently, Sundowns are flourishing on the summit of table with 70 points, a whopping 19-point lead from second-placed arch-rivals TUT Ladies.
Soon, Jerry Tshabalala’s charges will be switching their focus to Morocco, where this year’s edition CAF Women’s Champions League will be taking place.
And the Tshwane-based giants will be hoping to send a strong message to their continental opponents in their quest to defend their tittle.
WHAT ORATILE MOKWENA SAID BEFORE THE GAME
“The games are coming thick and fast for us and we are relishing them as they come,” said midfielder Oratile Mokwena in an interview with Sundowns’ media.
“These fixtures are keeping us in shape because we will be facing some of the best teams across the continent in Morocco. I must commend our consistency and determination right from the start of the season.
“Everyone on the team is hungry to win and we are focused on getting maximum points in every game we play.
“We will be very excited to win the Hollywoodbets Super League before we get to Morocco, thus, we are mentally prepared for anyone standing in our way.”
