Sundowns continue bid to finish season unbeaten

SOCCER 10 POOL OF THE DAY

Tuesday 14 May

S10 V2

Mamelodi Sundowns continue their bid to become the first side to complete a South African league season unbeaten.

They have a catch-up game tonight at Royal AM in Maritzburg, having edged out the same side 1-0 with a late Peter Shalulile goal on Saturday. After tonight, Sundowns will have three more games to navigate in their record-breaking quest.

The clash shares headline billing in tonight’s TAB Soccer 10 pool with the match in London between Spurs and Manchester City, who have two games between them and a fourth successive English Premier League title.

City must win both to be sure of clinching the title and Spurs are likely to prove no pushover, having twice beaten their rivals in their last three London encounters. More details at http://www.soccer6.co.za
