Mamelodi Sundowns coach Miguel Cardoso showered his players with praise after they ended the 2024-25 Betway Premiership campaign with a win against Magesi FC.

The Brazilians ended their campaign with a 2-0 victory over Magesi FC thanks to a double from Lucas Ribeiro Costa at Loftus Versfeld Stadium in Pretoria.

Sundowns finished with a record 76 points after they won 25, drew one and conceded only three defeats in 29 matches.

The Portuguese coach was proud of his side’s performance and admits that he is happy to have coached such quality players this season.

“The smiles and energy is obviously the sense of the job done obviously let’s say. At the same time, it’s an expression of the values we have in the locker room of the family that we build. Of the energy we have amongst us and make us to always be ambitious, ambitious, ambitious,” Cardoso told SuperSport TV after the game.

“I told you that we needed to have a group of character today and that’s what the boys did. To play a beautiful game, make a result and enjoy a smile and that’s what they did.

“Maybe if they could’ve gone for more goals, but they enjoyed touching the ball that’s the nature of the club, this team, that’s the quality of these boys and also what I love so much.

“So, I’m a coach that’s very pleased to be a Mamelodi Sundowns coach and to represent all the Masandawana family and be the head of this group of men and they are really a great group of men. Otherwise, they would not be champions for so many years in a row.”
