TS Galaxy jumped to position four on the table after beating Orbit College 3-1 at Dobsonville Stadium, where Kaizer Chiefs product Puso Dithejane missed a penalty.
Seluleko Mahlambi scored the fastest goal of the season so far when he struck a minute into the match before Sphesihle Maduna made it 2-0 for the Rockets on 63 minutes.
Veteran Mpho Mvelase extended TS Galaxy's lead four minutes later while Ayanda Lukhele attempted to launch a comeback for Orbit with five minutes remaining.
But it was too late for the hosts even after their opponents went a man down after Lentswe Motaung was red-carded with two minutes to go.
Orbit remain second from the bottom in the standings.
