The Pretoria giants were the better side from the start of the match and scored a beautiful free-kick courtesy of Teboho Mokoena on the stroke of half-time. However, the Soweto giants fought back in the second half with goals from Wandile Duba, who benefited from a costly error from Lucas Suarez, and a much-debated late winner from Ashley Du Preez.
