Mamelodi Sundowns have been crowned Q1 and Q2 champions of the DStv Premiership after securing the top spot in both quarters. The Tshwane giants have been dominating local football and have been the subject of much attention from coaches and former players, who have publicly suggested that Sundowns’ financial clout is the reason they are doing so well.
