Mamelodi Sundowns head coach Rulani Mokwena says his side were still the be better team after Mosa Lebusa's sending off against Golden Arrows.
Sundowns extended their unbeaten run in the DStv Premiership to 49 matches after the goalless draw on Wednesday night.
The league champions played the second with ten men after Lebusa was shown a straight red after the interval.

“Yeah, I don’t think I understand how we go into halftime 0-0. I mean, so many chances I was counting at one point I stopped," Mokwena told SuperSport after the game.
"I think it should’ve been 5-0. And then, we worked on a kick-off routine and it didn’t come out.
“It was my idea to be honest because of how deep their line is and the rest defence was not so good but you know when the quicker it goes forward- the quicker it will come back and then you got to re-organise and then the red card I take it even though I speak to the players now and they said ‘ah, coach we shouldn’t have allowed it to bounce’ but ok its football.
“Then, it’s 10 v 11 but there’s still one team on the pitch and that’s why (Ismail) Watenga is man of the match. We still created more chances, Marcelo there with the short-corner there he should score. So, it was just one of those games where the ball didn’t go into the back of the net.
“But I think relatively a very good performance from us, very offensive, chance after chance. But maybe too wasteful in front of goal and that’s probably my biggest disappointment but I’m very proud of the character, spirit, mentality of this group is very good.
