Mamelodi Sundowns head coach Manqoba Mngqithi was pleased with the Tshwane giants' mentality following their hard-fought win over Stellenbosch on Saturday afternoon.
Masandawana came back to defeat Stellies 2-1 in a PSL match at Danie Craven Stadium with Peter Shalulile grabbing a late winning goal for the defending champions.
Stanley Dimgba opened the scoring to hand Stellenbosch the lead in the first half, but Gaston Sirino levelled matters after the restart and Shalulile sealed Sundowns' win in stoppage time.
