Sundowns made two changes to the side that beat Orlando Pirates, one enforced, as Cassius Mailula took the place of the injured Abubaker Nasir and Sifiso Ngobeni started ahead of Aubrey Modiba. Swallows defender Nicholus Lukhubeni, meanwhile, started against his former side.
The Brazilians were playing in advanced attacking areas in the early exchanges but they were met by a strong resistance from Swallows, who crowded their box. Ernst Middendorp's charges, however, nearly took the lead on 17 minutes from a set-piece after Kwanda Mngonyama powered a free diving header in the box but goalkeeper Ronwen Williams made a breathtaking reflex save.
Rulani Mokwena's troops took time to get into the flow of the game after that scare and only threatened eight minutes before the interval after Themba Zwane ballooned his shot over the crossbar from a cut-back by Mailula at the near post. 30. Williams, 25. Mudau, 37. Ngobeni, 34. Mvala, 20. Kekana, 4. Mokoena, 11. Allende, 35. Maema, 18. Zwane, 10. Sirino, 33. Mailula14. D.Onyango, 28. De Reuck, 22. Kapinga, 15. Jali, 21. Mkhulise, 23.

So far so good Maswaiswai. Let's frustrate them and catch them with the counterattack. Uuuup the birds 💯👌✈️☝️
