Mamelodi Sundowns secured a dramatic 2-1 victory over AS Maniema Union in their CAF Champions League match, thanks to a late comeback spearheaded by Peter Shalulile. After trailing at halftime due to a goal from Jefu Kitambala, Sundowns dominated possession but struggled to convert their chances. Shalulile equalized in the 83rd minute with his first touch after coming on as a substitute, and he later forced an own goal from Ecaucia Moanda in injury time.
