Bloemfontein - Free
State Stars earned three priceless Absa Premiership points as they saw off
top-three hopefuls Bidvest Wits 1-0 at Goble Park on Wednesday, despite
playing virtually the entire second half with only 10 men.
The Students created the first chance of the game after just two minutes but Thulani Hlatshwayo fired wide of the mark, and although Sandile Zuke was able to find target with his effort a few minutes later, he could only shoot straight at Daouda Diakite.
It was then Ea Lla Koto's turn to threaten, with Robert Sankara sending a header just over the crossbar from Hendrik Somaeb's delivery, although Wits hit straight back but again Zuke was denied by the goalkeeper, this time from a free-kick.
