Orlando Pirates snatched a dramatic victory at Polokwane City with Patrick Maswanganyi's 90th-minute winner, maintaining their strong title charge. The Buccaneers took control through Relebohile Mofokeng's 52nd-minute opener, but looked set to drop precious points when Bonginkosi Dlamini leveled for the hosts with just four minutes remaining. However, substitute Maswanganyi, who had been introduced in the 77th minute, proved to be the match-winner with his perfectly-timed strike in the final moments. The victory keeps Pirates firmly in the title race conversation, while Polokwane will rue their inability to hold onto a valuable point despite showing great character to fight back from behind.
