Mamelodi Sundowns continued their dominance of South African football as they lifted the MTN8 following a 3-2 win in a penalty shoot out after the game ended 1-1. Catch up with all the action with the highlights.

The Brazilians were looking to end their drought in the competition after managing to claim all on offer in recent season except the top 8 tournament.

They, however, got their hands on the missing piece of silverware after a dramatic encounter at the Moses Mabhida stadium on Saturday evening.

Thapelo Morena gave Downs a 24th-minute lead, but Fagrie Lakay equalised for the Citizens after 75 minutes to send the game to extra-time.

Denis Onyango then proved to be the hero with 5 saves in the shoot out to lead his side to a 3-2 win.
