PRO’S HITLIST SA PSL: Mweene and Shonga in tight SA title race

With seven games left to play, the South African PSL title race is hotting up, and Zambian exports are also in the midst of all that action.

-MAMELODI SUNDOWNS
Goalkeeper Kennedy Mweene played for the defending champions on Tuesday night in a 2-1 away loss down at Cape Town City FC.

Sundowns are second on 40 points from 22 games with a match in hand and are tied on points with leaders Orlando Pirates.

Cape Town City are a close third on 39 points.

-ORLANDO PIRATES
Striker Justin Shonga was not on target but his assist for Pirates’ 80th minute equalizer scored by Luvuyo Memela earned them a 1-1 home draw in Soweto against mid-table Bloemfontein Celtic.

The result, though, saw Pirates rise from third to first.

Shonga played the full 90 minutes while midfielder Augustine Mulenga was substituted in the 59th minute.
