Mamelodi Sundowns coach Rulani Mokwena has said his side's current run of results would be appreciated by both Kaizer Chiefs and Orlando Pirates.

Masandawana are top of the PSL with a commanding 13-point lead over Orlando Pirates and SuperSport United, having played two games less.

They have won 14 of their 18 matches and have not lost a league match this season. Moreover, they have not tasted a league defeat in 42 games.

Mokwena thinks his team's results would be appreciated more by the Soweto giants.

"I think you’re correct to say if you were to give the current results to any one of the Soweto giants, I think there would be a little bit more appreciation, but okay it is what it is," he said via iDiski Times.

The young coach understands that he has to keep winning at the club.

“I’m under a lot of pressure, I have to win every game, I have to win. But that is the nature of the business, you know, you have to win.”

Mokwena and Sundowns have won the first African Football League. The league is theirs to lose, and they're in the quarters of the Nedbank Cup and CAF Champions League.
