Absa Premiership: Supersport, Pirates Clash Postponed

The Absa Premiership game between SuperSport United and Orlando Pirates has been postponed due to floodlight failure at the stadium.

The game will resume on Wednesday at 12h00 with 27 minutes remaining and with Matsatsantsa holding a 1-0 lead.

Michael Boxall opened the scoring in the 22nd minute with a neat finish from a David Mathebula free-kick, the New Zealand international with a goal on debut.


The lights at the Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane went out just past the hour mark. Generators were in place to combat the problem which was a first thought to be because of load shedding.

It was later established that the lights failed due to a technical fault.
