South African Premier News
Sundowns' title rivals, Orlando Pirates, are two points behind with eight games left to play and will be in action simultaneously at home to Golden Arrows.
Orlando Pirates host Golden Arrows at the Orlando Amstel Arena on Tuesday as they make their return after the international break and enter the decisive stretch of the tightest Betway Premiership title race in years.
South Africa controlled the tempo for the lion's share of both games, but their dominance did not always translate to goals and lapses at the back meant they drew 1-1 in Durban and lost 2-1 in Cape Town.
South Africa will host Panama on Friday in Durban -- the first of two friendlies over the course of the international break -- before facing them again in Cape Town next Tuesday.
Bafana Bafana goalkeeper and captain Ronwen Williams has urged South Africa fans to support Lyle Foster, suggesting that the under-fire striker's struggles at Burnley have affected his confidence.
