Too early for major rotation

Chopping and changing the line-up in almost every game comes with a number of challenges.

Losing the rhythm is at the top of the list and that's exactly what happened in the 1-0 loss to Polokwane City at the Old Peter Mokaba Stadium on Sunday.

Sundowns looked so disjointed and could hardly string together five passes against a more spirited Rise and Shine that outplayed them on the day.
