No Downs panic buttons

Mamelodi Sundowns coach Manqoba Mngqithi is not pressing any panic buttons yet, despite being booted out of the MTN8 Cup by Stellenbosch FC.

The Brazilians were just not at the races against a more organised and spirited Stellies side, that recorded back-to-back wins in the two-legged semifinal.

The shock defeat to Stellenbosch has raised alarms among Sundowns supporters, but Mngqithi remained unperturbed as he addressed the media at Moses Mabhida Stadium.
