Slovakian striker Pavol Šafranko scored his first goal for Mamelodi Sundowns to earn them a crucial away goal against Golden Arrows in the MTN8 semi-final first leg.
The 26-year-old finally got off the mark in South Africa’s top flight when he cancelled out Nqobeko Dlamini’s opener to secure a 1-1 draw at the Sugar Ray Xulu Stadium this past Saturday.
Šafranko’s 85th minute goal has now handed Sundowns the advantage as they head into the second leg at the Lucas Moripe Stadium on 28 September.
