Mamelodi Sundowns Ladies have once again proven their dominance in South African women’s football by securing the Hollywoodbets Super League title for a record fifth time. This historic achievement was sealed after a commanding 5-0 victory over Matsatsantsa TUT Ladies at Lucas Moripe Stadium. The defending champions displayed their usual flair and clinical finishing, with Andisiwe Mgcoyi and Rhoda Mulaudzi each scoring twice, while Lelona Daweti contributed with a single goal. This stunning win pushed Sundowns to 80 points, ensuring they were uncatchable at the top with just one game remaining. Their campaign has been nothing short of spectacular, with the team scoring an astonishing 112 goals throughout the season while conceding only 12, showcasing both their attacking firepower and defensive solidity. This title further cements Sundowns’ place as one of the most successful teams in the history of the league.
Meanwhile, the defeat for TUT Ladies leaves them in 11th place with 32 points from 29 matches, well below the high expectations they had at the start of the season. Despite their struggles, TUT can take pride in their resilience throughout the campaign and will look to improve in the final stages of the season. Sundowns’ latest triumph highlights the gap between them and other sides in the league, reinforcing their reputation as an unstoppable force in South African women’s football.
In other weekend action, University of Western Cape (UWC) faced a tough challenge against JVW FC, who triumphed 2-1 in a hard-fought encounter. Despite UWC putting up a strong fight, with goals from Keolebogile Putu and Jessica Wade, they fell short and were unable to secure the win. UWC remains in fifth place with 52 points from 29 games, still in the mix for a strong finish to the season. As they prepare for their debut appearance in the CAF Women’s Champions League, UWC’s focus will now be on finishing the domestic season strongly to gain the momentum they need for their continental challenge.
UWC, who had hoped to secure second place in the league, are currently holding that spot with 66 points, but with two games still to go, their position is not guaranteed. They will need to maintain their focus and continue to perform at a high level to ensure they finish in the top two, securing their place in the Champions League. This season has proven to be a competitive one in the Hollywoodbets Super League, with teams like Sundowns showcasing the highest level of professionalism and skill, while clubs like UWC continue to grow and aspire to greater success both domestically and internationally.
