The Brazilians managed to create a handful of chances in the game but Rise and Shine goalkeeper George Chigova was equal to the task and kept his side in the game.

Captain Hlompho Kekana had a chance to extend Sundowns’ lead when City defenders couldn’t stop him from getting into the penalty box but his shot went wide at goal in referee’s injury time.
