***HALF TIME IN POLOKWANE***

Chiefs 1-2 Platinum Stars

09 Dec 2014

44' - A scrappy goal but Stars will take it.  Chiefs do not deal with cross and it comes out to Semenya whose scuffed shot comes to Rodgers who reacts before the Chiefs defence can.  He doesn't connect cleanly at all but it is enough to beat Khuzwayo.  Stars have the lead just before half time!

09 Dec 2014

GOAL - PLATINUM STARS!

09 Dec 2014

42' - Nothing comes from the Chiefs free kick.

42' - First yellow of the match to Semenya  after a foul on Letsholonyane.

40' - Great save by Khuzwayo from a thunderbolt from Rogers.   It goes out for a corner but easily dealt with by Chiefs.

09 Dec 2014

38' - Poor Nkhatha!  He is through on goal after beating the offside trap, his first tough lets him down however and Dambe collects at his feet.

09 Dec 2014

37' - Chiefs piling on the pressure, looking for a goal before half time.  Maluleka tries a shot from long range, but it flies wide of the left hand upright.

09 Dec 2014

36' - Chiefs this time with a great attack, but the Stars defence managed to intercept and Dambe clears.

09 Dec 2014

35' - A good period for Stars as they threaten the Chiefs goal again through Semenya but his shot drifts wide.

09 Dec 2014

33' - Stars again putting Chiefs under immense pressure as Rogers wins a header against Gould and flicks it into the path of Ng'ambi.  The Chiefs defence managed to scramble back and snuff out the danger.

09 Dec 2014

30' - Sloppy again from Chiefs, they gift the ball to Ng'ambi who tries an audacious chip after spotting Khuzwayo off his line but his effort is just over the bar.  What a goal that would have been!

09 Dec 2014

28' - Masilela and Lebese combining well down the left for Chiefs.  They look a threat to the Stars defence.

09 Dec 2014

24' -  Ng'ambi is a real threat to Chiefs tonight as he wins a corner, but it comes to nothing for Stars. 

09 Dec 2014

21' - Free kick to Platinum Stars, swung in, but to long and claimed by Khuzwayo.

09 Dec 2014

16' - It's that man Tshabalala.  Intially a cross from the right is just over Nkhatha.  It is collected on the left hand by line and a cross is swung into the big box by Masilela which eludes Dambe, the Stars keeper only for Tshabalala to tap home.

09 Dec 2014

GOAL - KAIZER CHIEFS!

09 Dec 2014

14' - Platinum Stars with some great movement and passing down the right with Ng'ambi prominent again. He shoots from distance but it is well over the bar.

09 Dec 2014

13' - Chiefs getting into their stride now.  Lebese prominent but Platinum Stars managed to clear and break up field.  A poor cross however goes straight to a Chiefs player.
