Mamelodi Sundowns head coach Miguel Cardoso has hailed the quality of his squad as his perfect start at the club continued.
Sundowns made it four wins from four under Cardoso after Artur Sales and Lucas Ribeiro Costa scored in their 2-0 win over Richards Bay in KZN on Saturday afternoon.
They have now scored five goals and yet to concede since his appointment and moved six points clear of Orlando Pirates at the summit, albeit having played two games more.
“Tough game, happy with the result, the satisfaction of watching our fans happy, the work the players did, but very difficult conditions to play,” Cardoso told SuperSport TV.
“The pitch was very dry. There were many moments we wanted to play but difficult to play [the ball] but we had the attitude, the patience, the quality in certain moments to define the game, it’s important to do this, use moments.
“Obviously we can do better but praise the players for the efforts, the commitment, for the attitude and for the courage to keep on playing in very difficult conditions.”
Sundowns now turn their attention to the CAF Champions League where they travel to Morocco to face Raja Athletic Club next weekend.
