By Yadnom Awu /Asaba
African entrants, Mamelodi Sundowns of South Africa, tonight, went down fighting in their second tie at the ongoing FIFA Club World Cup Championship in America.
The South Africans , who had won their opening game of the tournament by a lone goal, went down by 3 – 4 in the seven- goal thriller.
They had gone ahead in the first stanza, where they dominated the game.
But the joy associated with their dramatic score ended soon afterwards when, for loss of focus, Dortmund came back with three quick goals.
By the break, Dortmund had gone up by three goals to one.
The South Africans ,however, resurged in the second half, piling pressure on Dortmund .
Their efforts paid off when they netted two more and conceded one more to end the game on a losing note of 3-4.
