Thabo Nodada scored in the 89th minute to give the hosts the win, Soccer Laduma reported.

Gallants' keeper, King Ndlovu, would have felt as if she should have done more as the effort was from a distance and wasn’t that powerfully struck. Cape Town City would have felt as if they deserved the goal as they had 16 shots throughout the game, with only three on target. Gallants on the other hand only had eight shots, with two on target.

Gallants are yet to win a game in the DStv Premiership since knocking Orlando Pirates out of the Nedbank Cup.

SuperSport United vs TS Galaxy

After a disappointing loss to Orlando Pirates during the week, Supersport United were hoping to bounce back with a win against TS Galaxy. The game wasn’t short of action, as both teams started well and went out in search of a fast start.

Orebotse Mongae gave them that start when he opened the scoring in the 13th minute. Sadly Mongae was responsible for his team conceding just over 10 minutes later. The player brought down Iqraam Rayners in the box and Jamie Webber converted the spot-kick.

The draw meant that Galaxy remain in the relegation zone, tied on points with Swallows above them.

DStv Premiership: Golden Arrows shine bright as they beat Kaizer Chiefs, Amakhosi fail to score at home

Golden Arrows kept their first clean sheet in a winning effort this season as they beat Kaizer Chiefs 1-0. Golden Arrows fought valiantly and clung on to the win, no matter what Kaizer Chiefs through at them.

Knox Mutizwa gave Golden Arrows a golden start as he scored in the fifth minute of the game. The forward had Eric Matoho to thank for the chance though as the defender attempted to play a back pass but didn’t put enough power on it.

Mutizwa ran onto the ball and shot at goal, chipping Bruce Bvuma who was way off his line. The goal came as a bit of a surprise to Chiefs as the Amakhosi started the game better, Sports Brief earlier reported.
