Mamelodi Sundowns' red-hot striker Peter Shalulile edged closer to Collins Mbesuma's 16-year-old record for most goals in a DStv Premiership season with a ...
The home side dominated Arrows in all aspects from the start. The records continue to tumble for coaching trio Manqoba Mngqithi, Steve Komphela and Rulani Mokwena’s yellow machine, as the defeat was Arrows’ heaviest in the Premiership, previously having lost by a largest margin of four goals. Shalulile is now just four goals shy of Mbesuma’s record.
The Brazilians will need to win just two games of their remaining five DStv Premiership matches to clinch a fifth successive league crown.
Pavol Safranko scored the fourth and Kermit Erasmus also came from the bench to score Downs’ 29th goal in the last 10 games in all competition, and the club’s second 6-0 win in as many games. Shalulile’s first goal came in the 24th minute when Lyle Lakay powered in a corner and the Namibian striker headed home to score his 19th strike of the season. Downs clipped Abafana Bes’thende’s heels with a 6-0 win on Tuesday afternoon at the Loftus Versfeld Stadium. You might as well change it from the Premier Soccer League to the Peter Shalulile League because it truly is Shalulile’s show.
A comprehensive wrap of all the collated fixtures, scores and match reports from the DStv Premiership.
Sundowns have a 14-point lead over second-place Royal AM, who have a game in hand, while third place Kaizer Chiefs have three games in the pocket, but the log leaders boast an 18-point lead over the Soweto giants. Shalulile is the first player in a decade to net more than 20 goals in a single season, with Bafana Bafana great Siyabonga Nomvethe netting 20 goals for Swallows in 2010/11. It is the biggest victory in the competition's history, as the Namibian international took his league tally to 21 goals in the 2021/22 campaign.
The Brazilians are at home again, three days after reaching the Nedbank Cup semi-finals but this time on PSL business. Mamelodi Sundowns' bid for a ...
Sundowns and Arrows have already met three times this season and their first clash was in the first leg of the MTN8 semi-finals where they drew 1-1 in Durban before Sundowns won the return leg 3-0. While Sundowns get into Tuesday’s match on the backdrop of six straight wins across all competitions, Arrows are a wounded side after losing 2-0 to Stellenbosch at home in their last league match. As they are also chasing glory in the Caf Champions League and the Nedbank Cup, Sundowns would want to wrap up the PSL title early and ease pressure on their side.

The Tshwane side have an 11-point lead at the top of the log and will have a chance to go 14 points clear going into the last five matches.

Arrows, meanwhile, have revived their chances of finishing in the top eight with three victories in their last five matches, although they lost their last outing 2-0 to Stellenbosch last time out. Lehlohonolo Seema's charges sit in ninth spot with the same number of points as eigth-placed SuperSport United and will get into the top eight if they avoid defeat. The Brazilians carried that form into the Nedbank Cup after hammering third-tier side Summerfield Dynamos 5-0 over the weekend to book a spot in semi-finals. Mamelodi Sundowns will have a chance to edge closer to the DStv Premiership title when they host Golden Arrows on Tuesday afternoon.
