Mamelodi Sundowns coach Pitso Mosimane has revealed his delight at his side’s first win in this season’s Caf Champions League.

Downs beat AS Togo-Port 2-1 on Friday night to give the South African champions their first win in the competition after two draws and a loss left them bottom of Group C.

The victory, and the resulting three points, lifted the Brazilians to five points and has put them back into contention to qualify for the knockout stages.

Speaking after the result, Mosimane revealed that he was relieved that his side managed to pick up their first victory.

‘It was a game that we had to win because we had no other option to continue in this tournament. We played well‚ except the goal we conceded in the closing stages‚’ he said.

Highlights: Mamelodi Sundowns vs AS Togo-Port

‘We controlled the game‚ there was never a threat and we could have scored two more with [Gaston] Sirino and [Jeremy] Brockie. This game was‚ for me‚ more difficult than the one we lost in Togo [1-0 last week]‚ but we got the three points and we got what we wanted.’

Togo-Port coach Agoro Tchagodomou, however, warned Sundowns that they may have won the game but there is still much to play for in the remaining rounds of the group stages.

‘There is still a lot to do for Sundowns in the group because all the teams have a chance to progress and we can’t say one team has a chance over the other at this stage‚’ Tchagodomou said.

‘If I have advice for Pitso‚ he has to review his second half because we put them under pressure and they lost the momentum. Both teams shared each half‚ Sundowns had the first half and we had the second one.

‘It was a good game and I am sure that the fans will go home happy because we gave them a good match.’
