Mamelodi Sundowns coach Pitso Mosimane didn’t mince his words after his side’s 3-1 victory over Platinum Stars, insisting that he deserves full credit for the result: “This one is mine,” said Mosimane.
The Brazilians proved superior to Dikwena and in the process managed to cut down the gap between them and log leaders Kaizer Chiefs to just three points although Chiefs have a game in hand.

Goals from Surprise Moriri, Anthony Laffor and Lebohang Mokoena took the goal tally to 41 in 23 league games for Downs this season.
The last time Sundowns won anything was back in 2008, but their chances of clinching the Premiership title this season are slowly becoming a reality in what has been touted as a two-horse race.
But the former Bafana Bafana mentor reiterated that he cannot control his neighbours and would rather focus on winning matches and collecting points.
“I think we were tactically good,” added Mosimane. “We missed a few chances, but all in all we managed to get what we wanted, which was the three points.
“We have to do what we can do to make sure we improve our position, which means going to the top. But we can’t control what our neighbours are doing.
We focus on ourselves and do what we must do. But I must have the credit for this victory, we worked so hard and the team managed to carry out the instructions.
This is one I’ve earned.”
The Pretoria side will be in action on Sunday when they take on their cross-town rivals Tuks while leaders Amakhosi will do battle in their quest for African glory in the Caf Champions League this weekend.
AmaTuks, who are 10th on the log, are embroiled in a struggle to finish their second stint in the top tier in the top half of the log.
