A 10 men Mamelodi Sundowns were held to a 1-1 draw by Kaizer Chiefs in a Betway Premiership encounter at Loftus Versfeld in Pretoria on Wednesday evening.
Amakhosi led 1-0 at half-time following Flavio da Silva’s 25th minute goal scored from Mduduzi Shabalala’s pass.
The Brazilians started the second half with more purpose and their efforts were rewarded with Colombian Brayan Leòn’s goal after he received a pass from Thapelo Morena in the 54th minute.
Sundowns suffered a massive blow when they were reduced to 10 men after match referee Luxolo Badi red carded Jayden Adams in the 65th minute following a second bookable offence.
Meanwhile, AmaZulu and Lamontville Golden Arrows drew 1-1 in another Betway Premiership match played at the Moses Mabhida Stadium in Durban.
Usuthu led 1-0 at half-time after Sandile Mthethwa had given them the lead as he headed in Nkosikhona Radebe’s corner-kick in the 16th minute. And it looked like Usuthu were going to bag three points until Jerome Karelse equalised for Abafana Bes’thende in the dying minutes of the match.
