Sundowns recalled Themba Zwane, Aubrey Modiba, Khuliso Mudau and gave a first start to Mothobi Mvala as a centre-back in place of the injured Brian Onyango while new signing Erwin Saavedra was on the bench but Abubaker Nasir was not in the squad.
The Brazilians had good movements going forward in the early exchanges but they almost went ahead from a set-piece after Modiba's dipping strike was parried over the top corner by goalkeeper Lloyd Kazapua. The visitors had a clear opening on 14 minutes after Teboho Mokoena went through on goal from a decisive pass by Marcelo Allende but his cut-back was blocked by Kazapua with his trailing leg.
However, the Brazilians' quick start slowed down midway through the first stanza, as Chippa closed down their passing channels and looked to break on counter-attacks. Sundowns continued to pin back Daine Klate's charges in their own half and Allende came close to breaking the deadlock on the stroke of half-time with a free header from a rebound in the box that missed the gaping net over the crossbar, with Kazapua out of his area.
