  • Stellenbosch FC defeated Kaizer Chiefs 1-0 in the DStv Premiership encounter at the Danie Craven Stadium in Stellenbosch thanks to a Dean van Rooyen goal
  • The defeat for Chiefs comes during a tough week where they sacked Englishman Stuart Baxter on Thursday
  • The victory for the Maroons ensured that they completed a season sweep of the Amakhosi after defeating them back in November last year

It was more of the same for Kaizer Chiefs after they were defeated 1-0 away to Stellenbosch FC at the Danie Craven Stadium in Stellenbosch.

This defeat for the Amakhosi comes in a tough week during which they lost to SuperSport United by the same scoreline last Saturday, before sacking coach Stuart Baxter on Thursday. The victory for the Maroons, courtesy of a Dean van Rooyen strike in the 20th minute, also ensured that they completed a season.

DStv Premiership match report: Golden Arrows and Sekhukhune United fire blanks

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.
