iDiski TV analyst Junior Khanye has praised Mamelodi Sundowns duo Khuliso Mudau and Nuno Santos for their showing in the 2-0 win over Sekhukhune United in Polokwane on Tuesday.
The two were second half substitutes and were assist and scorer of the first goal respectively in stoppage time. Mudau was also involved in the creation of the winner scored by Brayan Leon Muniz.

Khanye said the Bafana Bafana international analysed the game from the bench and brought solution when he came on.
“There is a saying that goes, when you are on the bench you are not only on bench, but you are also sort of a coach,” said Khanye on iDiski TV.
“Well done to Mudau and you know when a defender has such an impact, he is a defender, a wing-back, well done for his decision making. Two goals he played a big role, the first goal well done to him coming inside and not being selfish. It’s the same thing we were talking about with regards to Orlando Pirates with [Kamogelo] Sebelebele who was supposed to lay the ball for his teammate. That’s what Mudau did.”
As far as the Portuguese midfielder is concerned, Khanye said he sees glimpses of how powerful the former can be and would like to see more from him.
“Nuno Santos is class, he knows football,” added Khanye.
“I want more from him. You can see he has that thing I just want him to raise his hand. If we can be honest when they brought this guy they were replacing [Lucas] Ribeiro, even though they won’t admit it.
“The guy has everything, the vision, the brains but I want to see him raise his hand to say I’m one of the best because he’ll step up in one game and not in the next. And that was a good goal, the goalkeeper had no chance.
“Not everyone can do that you need brains hence I want to see more from this guy.”
