SuperSport United were held to a 0-0 draw by 10-man AmaZulu in a DStv Premiership match at the Moses Mabhida Stadium on Wednesday evening. Matsatsantsa were looking to join league Mamelodi Sundowns and Cape Town City on six points, and were given a great opportunity to do so when Usuthu were reduced to 10 men before halftime, but the Durban side were able to hold out and even hit the woodwork with the effort which came closest to breaking the deadlock through the 90 minutes. SuperSport were the more proactive and creative team in an attacking sense through most of the first half, though AmaZulu provided great protection for goalkeeper Veli Mothwa, who was only called on to make a couple of straightforward saves in the opening 40 minutes. The hosts suffered a major blow five minutes before the end of regulation time in the first half when Thembela Sikhakhane was shown a straight red card for stamping on United midfielder Shandre Campbell.

SuperSport almost immediately capitalised on their numerical advantage, with a pinball moment in the AmaZulu penalty area ending with Thulani Hlatshwayo directing a header just wide of the target. The start of the second half saw Usuthu introduce Tshepang Moremi in place of Augustine Kwem to better balance out their 10-man line-up, while Matsatsantsa waited until just past the hour mark to bring on Siyanda Xulu and Risen Albert, shifting their formation to a back three and pushing more bodies forward. AmaZulu almost claimed the lead with just over 15 minutes of regulation time remaining, as substitute Bongi Ntuli capitalised on a loose ball in the penalty area and fired off a shot which rebounded off the post. United had a great chance of their own on 81 minutes when a defensive error presented Albert with a shooting chance, but the youngster was denied by a brilliant save from Mothwa. That proved to be the last major attacking threat at either end, with Usuthu and Matsatsantsa settling for a share of the spoils. SuperSport will be in MTN8 action this weekend when they face Stellenbosch FC in a quarterfinal fixture, while AmaZulu’s next match is a DStv Premiership fixture at home to Richards Bay on August 19.
