    Sekhukhune United managed a 2-1 win over Cape Town City in a Premier Soccer League (PSL) match on Sunday at the DHL Cape Town Stadium.

    Ohizu got into the scoresheet after he scored the second for the visitors in the 42nd minute. Vuyo Letlapa provided the assist for the Nigerian to score his fourth league goal of the season.

    Khulekani Shezi was sent off in the 46th minute after he received a second yellow card. However, Cape Town City failed to capitalise on the numerical advantage against their opponents.

    The Citizens denied Babina Noko a clean sheet after Kayden Francis scored in the 67th minute.

    Cape Town City remain in 14th place with 24 points, while Sekhukhune jump to the third position with 37 points.
