Mamelodi Sundowns coach Miguel Cardoso wants his side to keep grounded they edge closer to winning a record-extending eighth successive Betway Premiership title after their 2-0 win over struggling Cape Town City at Cape Town Stadium on Saturday.
Masandawana need seven points in their remaining four matches to clinch the title. They could wrap it up in two this week against Chippa United on Wednesday and Stellenbosch on Sunday, both at Loftus Versfeld, if Orlando Pirates fail to beat Lamontville Golden Arrows on Tuesday.
The Brazilians have 61 points and lead second-placed Pirates by 12. Pirates can reach a maximum of 67 points if they win all their remaining six matches and Sundowns need seven to have an unassailable lead, as things stand.
Tashreeq Matthews 34th minute and Iqraam Rayners 77th scored on either side of the break in Cape Town to help Sundowns register their 20th victory in 24 league matches.
We need to play each match with great respect because we don't know if we will lose points on the way. As much as we do, the next one is close to the objective that we want to achieve, Cardoso said afterwards.
