Mamelodi Sundowns head coach Manqoba Mngqithi has seemingly pointed out Kaizer Chiefs' weaknesses after their emphatic 4-0 win.
The Brazilians advanced to the Carling Knockout semi-finals after defeating the Soweto giants in front of a sold out FNB Stadium.
Sundowns defeated Chiefs in the Betway Premiership last month and he claims they learned their lesson, which paid off in Saturday's thrashing.

"We learned our lesson from the previous match [against Chiefs], because in the previous match if you look at our first-half, it was a very dominant performance but second half we lost shape," Mngqithi went on," Mngqithi told SuperSport.
"I expected a dominant performance and a lot of goals in this match because I thought we started very well and we came with a nice pressing scheme because we knew they might have limitations with the goalkeeper and also the centre-backs when they are put under a lot of pressure.
"And their central midfielders were a little bit slow, so we knew we had a chance to steal a lot of balls and we stole a lot of balls but unfortunately they did not translate into goals and for me it's always impressive to create scoring opportunities, not [play] for fun.
Mngqithi expressed their desire to win the trophy after they were knocked out of the MTN8 in the semi-finals.
"We would love to win this trophy, if the mentality to win every match stays strong and we're consistent, then we'll ultimately win the trophy and that's what we're trying to do," Mngqithi said.
"We suffered a big set-back in the MTN8 but now I think the team is coming together," the former senior coach added.
