Mamelodi Sundowns beat Dutch Eredivisie team Go Ahead Eagles
Mamelodi Sundowns notched their first win of their preseason camp in the Netherlands, 1-0 against Eredivisie team Go Ahead Eagles at Sportpark De Laene in Twello on Sunday.
Midfielder Sammy Seabi, who spent last season on loan at Sekhukhune United, scored the lone goal of the game from a corner in the 66th minute.
Eagles finished 11th in the 18-team Eredivisie in 2022-23. Downs' win on Sunday followed a 2-2 draw against Belgian Jupiler Pro League team Gent on Friday.
The Brazilians meet two more Eredivisie clubs on their tour — Sparta Rotterdam on Tuesday and NAC Breda on Friday.
Sundowns coach Rulani Mokwenas says the six-time successive DStv Premiership champions have lined up top-class opposition for their camp because the club is preparing for a tough season where they are set to compete in six competitions.
The Brazilians have been training just outside Amsterdam since their arrival on Monday.
