'I can't be more proud of this group of players' - Jubilant McCarthy lauds table-topping Amazulu players
Amazulu moved to the top the DStv Premiership log after beating Golden Arrows 1-0 on Saturday afternoon.
Usuthu made history after a victory in the Durban derby at Sugar Ray Xulu Stadium.
Midfielder Luvuyo Memela scored the deciding goal at the end of the first half.
"I can't be more proud of this group of players. They have proven themselves to be exceptionally good equipped, useful, hardworking, determination, drive, and they have the ability that you have never seen," Amazulu coach Benni McCarthy said after the match
Usuthu is on a 14 match winning streak.
Despite the loss from Arrows, coach Mandla Ncikazi says they are still on course to finish in the top four.
"We are disappointed with the results I don't think we had a good first half and surprisingly we did not put more pressure. I can only control what players are doing on the field of play but we are still on course on what we pledged in the beginning of the season."
Orlando Pirates will be gunning for revenge on Sunday when they welcome Mamelodi Sundowns to the Orlando Stadium.
"I am hoping that Orlando and Mamelodi Sundowns provide a really good game. We will see what happens tomorrow and hoping it becomes interesting," added McCarthy.
"I hope Pirates do the country and everyone a favor because you cannot be hammered three times by one team."
