Striker Esau Kanyenda grabbed his fourth goal in the South Africa Absa Premier Soccer League (PSL) when he scored in Polokwane City’s 2-1 win over Moroka Swallows on Saturday. City are now on fifth position.

South Africa press reported that Kanyenda headed Tshepo Molala’s cross from the right into the net on the 11th minute at Peter Mokaba Stadium in Limpopo Province.

However, Felix Obada replied for the relegation-threatened Swallows, before City equalised through Rendani Ndou.

In other South Africa games, injured Robert Ng’ambi missed Platinum Stars’ game, which they lost 2-0 to Orlando Pirates at Royal Bafokeng Stadium in Rustenburg.

Ng’ambi was reportedly close to full fitness, but failed to make the squad as Lennox Bacela and Majoro struck to leave Stars in relegation zone.

Elsewhere, Free State Stars registered a back-to-back draw when held 1-1 by University of Pretoria. A goal by Pretoria’s Denver Mukamba was cancelled out by Danny Venter. AtusayeNyondo played a full game for Pretoria.

Still in South Africa, Lawrence Majawa featured for his Botswana Township Rollers, which lost 1-2 to Kaizer Chiefs in the 2015 CAF Champions League fixture at FNB Stadium.

Rollers hope for a better showing in the return leg in two weeks in Gaborone. They look forward to erase Matthews Rusike and TefuMashamaite’s goals that sandwiched Rollers’ Segolame Boy goal.
