Pietermaritzburg - Maritzburg United's bid to finish in the Premiership top eight for the first time in their history suffered a blow after they were held to a 1-1 draw by Orlando Pirates at the Harry Gwala Stadium on Wednesday.
The Team of Choice lead through Deolin Mekoa's deflected goal after just five minutes, before Kermit Erasmus leveled with 25 minutes to play.
The result, coupled with Mamelodi Sundowns beating SuperSport United, means the Buccaneers cannot qualify for the CAF Champions League, while Maritzburg still have work to do if they want to finish in the top eight.
