Nuno Santos on his debut in South Africa

The 26-year-old Portuguese midfielder Nuno Santos has managed to make his debut for Mamelodi Sundowns in the Betway Premiership match on Wednesday. Nuno Santos joined Masandawana from the Portugal-based club Vitoria Guimaraes. Unfortunately, on his debut, his new club Mamelodi Sundowns lost 1-0 to Golden Arrows in Durban.

The former Mamelodi Sundowns coach Manqoba Mngqithi collected all points against his former club. The former AmaZulu FC striker Junior Diong ended Masandawana's unbeaten run in the 30th minute of the first half. After the match, Santos said, "I'm happy with my debut here. I'm very proud and we came here to get three points; sadly, we couldn't do it. We will go again next game."

"It was a very physical, emotional, and quality game as well. The team played very well, I'm very happy."
