Orlando Pirates came from behind to secure a 2-1 victory over Cape Town City at the Orlando Stadium to reclaim second place in the DStv Premiership.

City got off to a good start, and in the 17th minute, Khanyisa Mayo broke the tie with a hard, low shot that beat goalie Sipho Chaine.

But the Pirates responded by putting pressure on the Citizens’ weak defence, and Terrence Dzvukamanja’s header in the 27th minute brought things back to even.

After bringing the score back to even, the home team was in charge. Their top scorer, Monnapule Pule, scored the game-winning goal in the 77th minute to give Pirates the win.
