Sekhukhune United go top of the table with victory over Durban City

Sekhukhune United continued their good form this season as they soared to a 2-0 victory over top-flight newcomers Durban City in Limpopo on Saturday.

Two early goals from Babina Noko from veteran duo Bradley Grobler and midfielder Thabang Monare ensured that the home side controlled the opening 45 minutes.

City came out looking for a goal to put them back in the match, but a disciplined defensive performance ensured they weren't able to test United's goalkeeper Manuel Sapunga.

The win sees Eric Tinkler's side go into the international break on top of the Betway Premiership with four wins and a draw from their opening five matches of the 2025/26 season.

TS Galaxy move up to fourth with 3-1 win over Orbit College

TS Galaxy climbed to fourth place in the Betway Premiership with a 3-1 win over Orbit College.

The hosts took an early lead in the opening minute when Seluleko Mahlambi capitalized on a precise delivery from Mpho Mvelase to score from close range. Galaxy had an early penalty opportunity, but Puso Dithejane’s spot-kick was saved by Sekhoane Moerane. Orbit’s chances were also limited, with Gomolemo Khoto missing a clear opportunity in the second half.

Galaxy extended their lead in the 67th minute when Sphesihle Maduna combined with Mahlambi to finish from a tight angle, before Tshepo Mvelase added a third following a neat cut-in from Dithejane. Orbit pulled one back late through Lethabo Modimoeng, but it proved insufficient to change the outcome.

TS Galaxy were reduced to ten men in stoppage time as Lentswi Motaung was sent off for a second bookable offence. Despite the dismissal, the hosts had already done enough to claim a convincing victory and continue their push toward the top four.
