|February 17, 2026

Sundowns remain in the hunt to retain the Betway Premiership crown and are also still alive in the Nedbank Cup, where they will face TS Galaxy in the last 16.
“I think Champions League teams should be protected in terms of the calendar and I don’t know how to do it,” Cardoso explained.
