Mamelodi Sundowns thrashed Sibanye Golden Stars 5-2 to progress to the last 16 of the Nedbank Cup on Saturday evening.
Defender Kegan Johannes was given his start of the season for Masandawana, while new signing Jayden Adams was named on the substitutes bench.
Sundowns needed just two minutes to get the breakthrough, as Malibongwe Khoza secured the opener when he got on the end of Arthur Sales corner and head in unmarked.
Sundowns added a second in the opening-quarter after Tashreeq Matthews broke through the lines to get onto a through pass and rolled in an empty net.
The second division presented no threat to the fancied counterparts, who enjoyed complete control and penetrated matters all-round with resounding ease.
Matthews completed a first-half brace after picking up a loose pass from a poorly constructed build-up pattern at the other end of the pitch, before firing into the back of the net.
Stars, however, pulled a goal ten minutes after the break when Mojalefa Mokhatla ran in the near side of the box and drilled a low right-footed shot through the diving Williams.
Masandawana were cut open again after a quick passing move led to an overload and cutback for Boeletsang Rankali to fire in the bottom-corner.
This didn't unsettle the Brazilians though who grabbed a fourth goal after Sales nudged a ball off the defence and combined with Kobamelo Kodisang to tap in an empty net.
New signing Adams came on for his debut Sundowns in the latter phases and replaced Neo Maema in the middle of the park.
Sundowns were down to ten players with just under ten minutes to go when Bathusi Aubaas walked the plank for apparent an elbow on an opponent.
Kodisang, who came in the second half, made it five with the last kick of the game after latching onto Sales' scuffed shot to find the far post and draw the clash to a close.
