Khulekani Shezi of Lamontville Golden Arrows challenges Aubrey Modiba of Mamelodi Sundowns during the 2026 MTN8 semi-final first leg match at Lucas Moripe Stadium on Sunday.
Mamelodi Sundowns defender Aubrey Modiba says the Brazilians must quickly put their MTN8 setback behind them when they return to Betway Premiership action against AmaZulu on Wednesday.
Sundowns suffered their first defeat of the season on Sunday when Golden Arrows secured a victory in the first leg of their MTN8 semi-final at Lucas Moripe Stadium.
Despite dominating large portions of the encounter, the Brazilians were unable to find a way past Abafana Bes’thende and were punished by Sede Dion’s first-half strike.
Modiba believes there were positives to take from the performance, but insists Sundowns cannot afford to dwell on the result with another important fixture immediately on the horizon.
