Chiefs responded quickly, with Flavio Da Silva scoring eight minutes later after pouncing on a loose ball in the box, marking his second consecutive goal.

Both teams increased their attacking efforts as the match opened up, though neither created additional clear-cut chances.

Thabang Monare rose to meet a Keletso Makgalwa cross, but Chiefs goalkeeper Brandon Petersen parried the header.
