Andile Jali nowhere to be seen
32-year-old midfield general Andile Jali was overlooked for Sundowns’ Nedbank Cup win over Marumo Gallants. Reportedly, he and Sipho Mbule had arrived for training intoxicated in separate incidents and Jali was left out of the squad on those grounds. His infraction was last Wednesday.

Mamelodi Sundowns injury list is a sight to behold
These are the players currently sidelined for Masandawana:
- Lebohang Maboe
- Abubeker Nasir
- Erwin Saavedra
- Gaston Sirino
- Rushine De Reuck
- Lesedi Kapinga
- Sphelele Mkhulise
- Gift Motupa
- Jerome Karelse
Sundowns have an embarrassment or riches
It’s also insane to think that Sundowns have virtually wrapped up the PSL title and they’ve done it minus a host of key players for long spells. Remember also that Rivaldo Coetzee missed the majority of the campaign before a recent return to action. Their strength in depth in ridiculous.
This isn’t the first scandal hitting Masandawana this week. An unnamed player has tested positive for an illegal substance. The Brazilians will clinch the PSL title sooner rather than later, but these off-pitch issues could still derail their ambitions in the Nedbank Cup and CAF Champions League. Trouble in paradise perhaps?
