DStv Premiership Match Report: Golden Arrows and Sekhukhune United Fire Blanks

• Golden Arrows and Sekhukhune United played out a lame 0-0 draw at the Sugar Ray Xulu Stadium in Durban
• Both teams missed out on breaking into the Top 8 as the season reaches a dramatic climax in a few weeks
• Those who did not attend the match will be relieved not have done so such was the poor quality of football on display

Golden Arrows and Sekhukhune United played out a poor 0-0 draw at the Sugar Ray Xulu Stadium in Durban.

The government recently allowed spectators into venues, but after this match, not many would bother to witness what was a disappointing snorefest that lacked quality.

Both Arrows and United needed a victory to get into the Top 8, but did not seem interested in doing so.

The result kept Arrows in ninth spot on 32 points with four matches to go. United remained a position below in 10th place on 31 points.

DStv Premiership preview: What is at stake at the top and bottom of the log table

With the 2021/22 DStv Premiership approaching its conclusion, this weekend’s round of matches will give a clearer indication of what the final log standings might just look like.

As reported on Sports Brief, Mamelodi Sundowns and Orlando Pirates will not feature in league matches as they are currently on duty in the CAF Champions League and Confederation Cup respectively.

However, every other team will be in action in what is a moving weekend of sorts.
