89' - What a goal that is! Modise has scored from just inside the box with a curler into the top left corner. Laffor did all the hard yards down the right-hand touchline and cut the ball back to the Sundown's playmaker. Josephs had no chance in saving that.

78' - Sundowns have scored, it wasn't pretty but they won't mind. A ball from the left found Malajila in the box, he went to ground and was surrounded by four Wits players. The ball, however, was not cleared and Malajila managed to flick it into an open net after Josephs had chosen to join the fray! The Wits keeper tried to get back and make the save but the ball trickled over the line.

22 Aug 2015
45 +2' - Another free-kick to Wits after Klate is brought down. He swings it in and there are massive appeals for handball by the Wits players. Nothing given and Sundowns clear.

22 Aug 2015

22 Aug 2015
43' - A few challenges flying in from both sides now. Gavin Hunt, the coach of the Clever Boys is not very happy on the sidelines. Pelembe receives a yellow for a foul earlier.
22 Aug 2015
39' - It is still all Wits as they look for an equaliser before half-time. To be fair, the Sundowns defence is proving very difficult to crack at the moment. They deal easily with another free-kick.
22 Aug 2015
35' - More pressure from Wits, this time through a corner where Hlatshwayo has a free header but can only direct his attempt well wide of goal.

22 Aug 2015
24' - Billiat is proving a thorn in the Wits defence. Again he breaks down the right but this time the defender manages to stay with him and the ball runs out of play for a Wit goalkick.
22 Aug 2015
21' - Sundowns have broken the deadlock through Malajila after he makes an angled run to collect a very good short pass from Billiat. He calmly slotted home past Josephs.

GOAL - SUNDOWNS!
22 Aug 2015
16' - Wits almost open the scoring! A cross from the right finds Klate. His header across goal seems to be going into the right-hand corner but Mphahlele somehow gets back and clears off the line! Brilliant work by the Sundowns skipper.
22 Aug 2015
15' - Sundowns breakout down the right win through Billiat. He tries to find Malajila in the centre, but his cross is slightly overhit and lands on the roof of the net.
