Sundowns cut gap to Chiefs

Johannesburg - League champions Mamelodi Sundowns kept the pressure on log leaders Kaizer Chiefs with a 2-0 Absa Premiership win over Free State Stars at the Charles Mopeli Stadium on Saturday night.

Zimbabwe internationals Cuthbert Malajila and Khama Billiat netted for Sundowns and made the difference on a night where Sundowns could have scored plenty more.

Stars goalkeeper Johnny Mathole made several good saves while the league champions also lacked the finishing touch, which gave Stars some hope right until the end, but they found Dennis Onyango in equally good form in goal for the visitors.
