Mamelodi Sundowns clinch MTN-8 title

Reading Time: < 1 minute

Mamelodi Sundowns are the champions of the MTN-8 this season. Sundowns beat a determined Cape Town City 3-2 on penalties after sudden death.

Ugandan and Sundowns captain Dennis Onyango was the hero, saving five penalties.

The game ended 1-all after extra-time and had to be decided on penalties. There was drama in the penalty shoot out with Sundowns missing four spot-kicks.

City also missed five kicks with Onyango helping Sundowns win their first ever MTN-8 crown.

The last time the Brazilians won this tournament was back in 2007, when it was still known as the SAA Supa 8.

The Citizens finished the game with 10 men after Congolese Nathan Fasika was red carded after a second bookable offence.
