In what was one of the most exciting fixtures in the Betway Premiership this weekend, Marumo Gallants saw out a gritty 2-1 win over Chippa United at the Seisa Ramabodu Stadium in Bloemfontein on Sunday afternoon.
Bienvenu Eva Nga thought he stole a point for Chippa in the 88th minute given his sides attempts to cancel out Sekela Sitholes opener at the hour-mark.
Nevertheless, it was Eroine Agnikoi who had the last laugh with the winning goal in stoppage time.
Chippa United went on the attack from the first whistle with Giovanni Philander having a go at the Gallants keeper after a corner early on.
The Chilli Boys made their intentions known inside the first 10 minutes while Gallants looked to hit their opponents on the break.
Ndabayithethwa Ndlondlo created his sides first scoring chance in the seventh minute by letting fly from outside the 18-yard-area after a swift counter-attacking move.
With Ndlondlos attempt yielding no success, Chippa continued to pile on the pressure.
Gallants grew into the game as the 20th minute approached following attempts by Nldondlo and Mpho Chabatsane from range.
