Output in context · Mamelodi Sundowns finished 2nd of 16 · a title-challenging side
2.37 tackles, blocks & interceptions per 90 — moderate defensive volume, with 7 clean sheets across 16 appearances. Behind a title-challenging side (2nd of 16) the side controls more games, so the defensive load is lighter — the value sits as much in composure and ball progression as in raw volume.
Watch points
