Mamelodi Sundowns tactician Miguel Cardoso bags second Coach of the Month award in South Africa

Miguel Cardoso continues to stamp his authority in South African football after clinching his second Coach of the Month award, this time for March, further underlining his remarkable impact at Mamelodi Sundowns FC.

The Portuguese tactician had already been recognised for his outstanding work earlier in the year, having won the accolade for the January–February period. His latest triumph reinforces his consistency on the sidelines as he guides the Tshwane giants through another dominant campaign.

Under Cardoso’s leadership, Sundowns have maintained their relentless form, firmly positioning themselves on course for what would be an unprecedented ninth consecutive league title. The Brazilians have once again set the pace in the domestic scene, combining attacking flair with defensive solidity to outclass their rivals week after week.

Cardoso’s influence has been evident not only in results but also in the team’s style of play. Sundowns have displayed tactical discipline, fluid movement, and a winning mentality that has made them the benchmark in South African football.

The back-to-back monthly awards highlight the growing recognition of Cardoso’s work, particularly as he continues to build on the club’s already formidable legacy. Taking charge of a team accustomed to success can be a daunting task, but the coach has seamlessly maintained—if not elevated—their high standards.

With the business end of the season approaching, Sundowns remain firmly in control of their destiny. Cardoso’s ability to keep his squad focused and motivated will be crucial as they push to secure yet another title and further cement their dominance.

As things stand, the Brazilians look unstoppable—and with Cardoso at the helm, the dream of a ninth straight championship is becoming increasingly inevitable.
