Despite the absence of goals, the match was a captivating spectacle characterized by intense battles and strategic maneuvering, with both teams showcasing exemplary defending and goalkeeping prowess.

Sundowns, known for their possession-based approach, dominated much of the ball possession, seeking to assert their authority over their hosts. However, Young Africans stood firm, mounting swift counter-attacks in response to their opponent’s advances.

The first clear chance of the match fell to Young Africans in the 27th minute, with Clement Mzize breaking through on goal, only to be denied by a routine save from Sundowns’ goalkeeper Ronwen Williams.

Just moments before halftime, Sundowns threatened with a long-range effort from Teboho Mokoena, testing Young Africans’ goalkeeper Djigui Diarra, who remained vigilant to keep the scores level.

In the second half, it was Young Africans who enjoyed the better opportunities, despite Sundowns maintaining their dominance in possession. Mzize and Kennedy Musonda came close to breaking the deadlock for the hosts, but Williams proved equal to the task with crucial saves to keep Sundowns’ hopes alive.

With both teams unable to find a breakthrough, the match concluded in a goalless draw, setting the stage for an intriguing return leg at Pretoria’s Loftus Versfeld Stadium. The decisive encounter promises to deliver another riveting contest as Young Africans and Mamelodi Sundowns vie for a spot in the semi-finals of the CAF Champions League.
