Mamelodi Sundowns Ladies are taking large leaps towards the title.
They recorded their third big win in succession to keep up the pressure on title challengers, the University of Western Cape (UWC).
Banyana Ba Style defeated second-place JVW FC 6-1 on Sunday, which followed two 6-0 wins against Durban Ladies and City Lads Ladies, respectively.
Boitumelo Rabale and Karabo Makhurubetshi scored Sundowns Ladies' first-half goals as the reigning Hollywoodbets Super League champions went into halftime 2-0 up.
A flowing team move rounded off by Rabale just after the restart reaffirmed their dominance before Lehlogonolo Mashigo, Lebohang Ramalepe and Miche Minnies all netted to put the shine on the result.
The final stretch of the season is approaching and Mashigo described the team morale, as published by Sundowns FC.
“I am so happy for the team and we must continue to play like this in subsequent games. The team spirit in the camp is high and everyone is clicking at the right time."
Rabale was named Player of the Match for her two goals, which take her personal tally to a team and league-leading 18.
Sundowns Ladies now sit seven points clear of JVW, with two games in hand, having scored 72 goals in their 23 games.
They sit with a positive goal difference of 57, which is 11 better than UWC.
Their next game is this Wednesday against Coal City Wizards before a potential title decider away at UWC.
