Sundowns shortly before the half-time break with a composed finish in the
box from a cross by Siyanda Nyanga. However, Amakhosi were rescued by the
crossbar from going 2-0 behind ten minutes into the second stanza from a
strike by Riandre Vries and Vela Khumalo’s charges eventually found their
way back into the game three minutes later through Donay Jansen.

Relebohile Ratomo broke the deadlock for Pirates just after the half-hour
mark with a curling shot into the top corner after cutting inside the box.

minutes and completed his brace after a quick reaction in the box and
Sonwabo Khumalo put the result beyond doubt in stoppage time.

cushion at half-time. Yandisa Mfolozi put United out of sight early in the
second stanza and Thabang Mahlangu rounded off the thrashing with 16
minutes remaining.
