Cardoso hails Sundowns' 'belief, attitude' in record-breaking victory over Chippa
The Star
|May 09, 2025
MAMELODI Sundowns took a significant step toward sealing their eighth consecutive league title after a commanding 3-0 win over Chippa United in their Premiership clash on Wednesday night.
The emphatic victory allowed the Brazilians to restore their 12-point lead at the top of the table over second-placed Orlando Pirates, who had earlier edged Golden Arrows 2-1 at Moses Mabhida Stadium on Tuesday.

Head coach Miguel Cardoso praised his players' determination and composure after what marked their 21st win from 25 league outings this season.
