Watch as Mamelodi Sundowns forward Maurico Affonso nets an injury-time winner in his side’s 1-0 victory over Highlands Park.
The Brazilians came into the encounter on Wednesday evening looking to close the gap on league leaders Kaizer Chiefs to just two points ahead of their encounter on Sunday.
Downs, however, came up against a hard-working and well-organised Highlands team determined to upset the defending Absa Premiership champions.
Pitso Mosimane’s team threw everything they had at Owen Da Gama’s men, but couldn’t break through until substitute Affonso popped up in the 91st minute to snatch the three points.
