Mamelodi Sundowns co-coach Manqoba Mngqithi said Kaizer Chiefs shouldn’t have been the club to put an end to their unbeaten run in the DStv Premiership.

The Brazilians were the first to take the lead in this encounter with Gaston Sirino scoring the opener.

However, Chiefs turned things around in the second half with Mosa Lebusa’s own and Dumisani Zuma’s winner.

And Manqoba Mnqithi said Chiefs should not have been the team to won.

“I think it’s a game that we could have easily wrapped earlier,” Mngqithi told SuperSport after the game, as per Soccer Laduma.

“…We were caught with our right channel being open when we knew very well our legs were going.

“We felt we need to attack with one fullback at a time. And when both fullbacks attacked simultaneously and then an opening is created without a six. The six shifted one side.

“It became very naive defending. It looked like nobody could see Zuma at that time.

“I honestly don’t think this is the team that should have taken away our unbeaten record. I don’t think they fought hard enough to make the game difficult for us. But I believe we lost to ourselves”, he added.
