00:00That's what they expect and that is exactly what they're after.
00:07As we get the ball moving here with of course the Brazilians playing in their yellow and blue.
00:17Moved out sixth season playing four. The Sundowns gets the ball back to Ronwyn Williams
00:27and Damani, wonderful young player, big colossal player who just looks so strong on the ball,
00:36so firm and confident. Played of course in the 2025 Africa Cup of Nations
00:46for the national team.
00:56Looking to try and dominate and keep possession.
01:01And the first minute has been about.
01:06Damani could use plenty of space down the left-hand side and a chance to get a delivery coming in.
01:11Oh it's dealt with there, oh it's the shot that comes in and a fine drive as well. The loose
01:17ball
01:17you want to just an excellent build-up play down that left-hand side. Modiba gets the the ball
01:23drilled across. First time snapshot just outside of the penalty box but
01:32you can see that he could have done a little bit better than that.
01:37Zagrana coming back, shifting himself around Morena.
01:42There is again. High ball coming in, it's a decent attempt at getting the ball into the path of Lyon.
01:50And the shot comes in, it's a beautiful, oh the follow-up, an absolute beauty of a volley.
01:56And how about that? It comes from Brian Lyon. The first shot was prolific, the second was thunderous.
02:05First of all that was the first delivery that came across. You can't mess around with that.
02:09And look at that for a shot, brilliant shot there coming from Sal. It's the follow-up coming from Lyon.
02:14And the South American combination working an absolute treat. Defender, get rid of it.
02:19You don't play with fire in your own backyard.
02:31Well, what about that for a start?
02:36And a little jig and a little dance for the Colombian fourth match.
02:44He got what he was after.
02:47Good work from Taptee. Taptee, shot coming in. Nicely done.
02:50And why not? An opportunity there.
02:53Pat saw that there was a chance. Look, it's been teed up. Go for the shot.
02:58Got to deal with this one first before dealing with the Pirates.
03:01If possible, Pirates playing really well.
03:03There's a ball coming across. Well, it goes over and out of play.
03:07It will be a goal kick.
03:09And Danachouf gets the final touch up in the air as he claims that it didn't come off him.
03:14But that was most definitely Salas who got the last touch with a little bit of a scorpion.
03:19There you go. It's inside of the left boot. You can watch to see this again.
03:30They've gone ahead, of course, against Santoro Alupopo.
03:33MCLJ will be eliminated if it stays like this.
03:35There's the ball coming across and it was a good delivery as well.
03:38And Brian León, the player, rising up to try and buy.
03:44That was the delivery coming from Morena.
03:49That from Khalif. We haven't seen too much of Khalif.
03:51Three minutes of added time.
03:53Brian León's goal in the seventh minute separates these two teams.
03:56Matthews gets away from his man.
03:57Lots of space. Will he get his shot in?
03:59Great ball over to the left-hand side.
04:00If they want to go!
04:01Oh, what a strike off the crossbar.
04:04Beating Alexey Gwendouz.
04:07Beautiful play. Matthews has options.
04:11First-time effort.
04:13It's falling away from the ball, but uses that right foot to get his shot in.
04:16Putting force behind it.
04:18Beating the goalkeeper, but not the woodwork.
04:26It's to try and work out what they're going to do.
04:29Just saw Miguel Cardozo race off the pitch and into the tunnel.
04:34There's Mamelode Sundown's lead.
04:36MCLJ, one goal to nil.
04:38And the goal scored by, not this man here, Artio Sales, who got the shot in.
04:45But Brian León of Colombia in the seventh minute.
04:48It's a follow-up volley following a strike from the Brazilian.
04:58The Schwanney Giants stand tall.
05:00But can the Shenua hit back in the second half as they seek an equalizer to try and nudge them
05:10through to the quarterfinals? A victory will only count for the Sundowns if they want to push through.
05:19And let's hope that this is brought to an abrupt end.
05:27Came on as a substitute in that 2-1 victory over Al-Hilal.
05:36Have to win more possession in the midfield, hence the reason why they brought on the likes of Bangor.
05:41The ball picked up here deep down in enemy territory.
05:44If you can keep that ball in play, I think Fairhat, watch the ball just sneak over the line.
05:49It will be a goal kick for the Sundowns.
06:10Al-Hassan Bangor of Guinea, Conakry, 21 years of age.
06:17I mean, he's a physical presence, seven caps playing for the Sili Nacional.
06:22There's a decent ball going forward as well.
06:25Again, you can see that they're chasing everything. That's gone out of play once again.
06:29And a little bit too. Slightly overcooked there.
06:34Cutting inside. Well, he's playing offside position.
06:37Headed away comfortably there by Andamane.
06:40And finally, it's going to be a free kick.
06:43And it's going to be a yellow card as well. Frustration on Brian Lyon.
06:50He can't do that. That's slightly illegal.
06:58Get it out. Get it out.
07:02Another yellow card will come out for Zagrana.
07:04That's Ghazala and Zagrana picking up yellow cards. That was late.
07:09Coming from behind. Not the first time that he's down at the Burkina Faso.
07:13That kind of a challenge. Really reckless.
07:16And coming in from behind to haul down Jadon Adams.
07:25Waiting over at the far post.
07:30Little dance by Allende.
07:33Allende. There's the ball coming across. It's beautifully done.
07:37And look at that. An excellent goal.
07:41Scored by Brian Lyon. A second for Mamalodi Sundowns.
07:48Just look at the running line from Brian Lyon.
07:51And Allende gets the ball out to the left-hand side.
07:53Get in there first. Little touch.
07:55And it bounces past Guendouz, the goalkeeper.
08:02The pass is just a delight to the eye.
08:05The goalkeeper and the defence just get completely mixed up there.
08:09And I think it's an own goal, in fact.
08:13And again, Modiba's delivery.
08:19Absolutely top-notch.
08:24Give the goal to Brian Lyon.
08:27And that is a very important goal for Mamalodi Sundowns.
08:33At a critical time of the game.
08:46Modiba, the delivery.
08:48Oh, it's a decent header there.
08:50But he was tightly marked by Gisale.
08:54Yeah, he should have driven that towards goal.
08:59That should have been a third.
09:05That's a great challenge coming in from Okwena.
09:08Gets the ball back.
09:09That's Shalulile.
09:11Oh, he's still going.
09:12But he gets brought down there by Khalif.
09:17Looks like a yellow card's coming out for him as well.
09:26A lunge, late challenge.
09:29All over and Mamalodi Sundowns are going through to the quarterfinals once again.
09:36They have everything to do in this final Group C clash of the Total Energies African Champions League.
09:45In third position.
09:47Point behind MC Alger.
09:49But they do the business thanks to their Colombian striker, Brian Lyon.
09:54A strike either side of the break.
09:56Enough for them to go through to the quarterfinals.
10:01As the second best team in this group.
10:06As they try and push on and win their second continental title.
10:17So fantastic you guys.
10:22Don't forget to hit
