Ngwenya strike sinks Arrows

AmaZulu defeated Golden Arrows 1-0 at the Princess Magogo Stadium on Saturday to extend their winning streak to five league games courtesy of PSL top goal-scorer Thandolwenkosi Ngwenya's 65th minute strike.

Usuthu's victory sees them retain third spot on the league table with a four point lead over fourth placed Milford FC.

Milford maintain impressive start

Milford recorded a 1-0 victory over Sekhukhune United at the Sugar Ray Xulu Stadium to maintain fourth position on the Betway Premiership table.

The Stallions forward Mvelo Zikakayo scored a 24th minute winner in a tough encounter in KwaZulu-Natal to ensure that the newly promoted outfit wins its fifth league match in the top-flight division.

Kruger United overcome basement club Richards Bay

Kruger United secured their third win in nine league games after a 3-1 home win against Richards Bay at the KaNyamazane Stadium.

The home side were two goals up inside 23 mintes thanks to an opener by Wonderboy Makhubu and a another strike from the penalty sport from Ebrahim Seedat.

Richards Bay pulled one back through Luyanda Khumalo, but it proved to be a consolation as Mancoba Zwane sealed the win in the injury-time.

Elsewhere, Polokwane City were held to a goalless draw by TS Galaxy at the Old Peter Mokaba Stadiium to move to tenth spot on the Betway Premiership table.
