However, Royal Eagles bounced back into the game with an equalizer. The game was then equal to both teams but Eagles slipped when unmarked Jeremy Brockie had a free header in the box and sealed the victory for Supersport United.

Royal Eagles then bounced back in the dying minutes of the game with a beautiful taken free kick by former Bafana Bafana international, Katlego Mphela. But the Free kick that beat Reyaad Pieterse was ruled as not a goal. This is perhaps a controversial decision that unfortunately cost Eagles a come back. Should the goal counted, the two teams would have gone the distance.
