Mamelodi Sundowns were held to a 1-1 draw by Maritzburg United during their DStv Premiership match that was played at the Harry Gwala Stadium on Saturday night.

As a result of this stalemate, the Brazilians remain top of the standings with 14 points from six matches while Maritzburg earned their first point of the season even though they remain bottom of the table.

Sundowns, who had co-coach Manqoba Mngqithi red carded in the second half by referee Victor Gomes, will rue the fact that they wasted numerous scoring chances in the first. Sundowns missed a good opportunity to open the scoring after eighteen minutes when Maritzburg defender Nazeer Allie cleared a tame but goal bound shot from Peter Shalulile.

It was not all Sundowns during the early exchanges as Maritzburg also had their few opportunities on the attack through Judas Moseamedi, Thabiso Kutumela and Keagan Buchanan .
