Miguel Cardoso unhappy with his leaking defence after Golden Arrows 2-1 victory

Miguel Cardoso has decried the unavailability of his key players in defence as the reason they are leaking in goals.

The Mamelodi Sundowns coach spoke about the absence of his trusted men in the rearguard as they beat Golden Arrows 2-1 at King Zwelithini Stadium yesterday.

“Keanu Cupido is not on the pitch, Nuno Santos is not on the pitch, Arthur Sales is not on the pitch, and I could say that Khuliso Mudau is not on the pitch. So, there is a lot of changes that also obviously brings the need of finding the connections. It will settle down,” said Cardoso after the game.

“Obviously, I would like to have less goals suffered in the moment, but I am pretty happy because we are also scoring a lot. And I think if you go back and see, probably we are making one of the best starts from the last many years."
