Stellenbosch FC and Royal AM had to settle for a point each after their DStv Premiership clash at Danie Craven Stadium ended in a 2-all draw on Sunday.
Referee Victor Hlungwani had to consult with his assistant after he had ruled Potsane’s goal for an offside as he had to overturn his decision. Junior Mendieta stepped but he took a poor penalty that Nyame easily guessed as he parried the shot for a corner-kick. But it’s been Royal AM that has been able to keep up with the momentum. But they’ll hope that they can overturn their fortunes in the remaining six games. Before that though, Royal AM had just scored the lead from Tebogo Potsane from close-range after Athenkosi Mcaba’s deflected effort sailed to his path early on. Royal AM’s keeper Patrick Nyame saved a penalty in the first half to keep his team’s lead intact heading into the break.
Royal AM cut Mamelodi Sundowns' lead at the top of the DStv Premiership log to 14 points with a 2-2 draw away to Stellenbosch FC on Sunday.

Stellenbosch battled back on two occasions to force a 2-2 draw with high-flying Royal AM in an entertaining DStv Premiership clash on Sunday afternoon.
Mabena, 13. Mashikinya, 13. Van Heerden, 6. Van Rooyen, 8. Stellenbosch were reduced to ten men four minutes before time after after Kwinika got a second booking, but Moseamedi rescued a point for the home side and completed his brace in the last minute with a close-range finish from a rebound in the box. Barker's men should have been 2-1 up in the last ten minutes after Moseamedi went clear on goal in the box but he was denied by Nyame in a one-on-one. The Western Cape side almost gifted the visitors a goal early in the second stanza after goalkeeper Sage Stephens took his eyes off a back pass by Zitha Kwinika, which trickled under his foot towards the open net but he rushed back to parry off the line. Stellies lacked the cutting edge upfront and on the hour-mark, Barker brought on Judas Moseamedi in place of Mendieta and the striker made an immediate impact by levelling matters three minutes later with a low finish at the back post off Antonio Van Wyk's cross. Thwihli Thwahla pounced on a quick transition just after that, as Tebogo Potsane went through on goal and tucked home a strike past Stephens at the near post. Steve Barker's charges were threatening on transitions and were awarded a penalty in the 25th minute after Stanley Dimgba was brought down in the box by Mahlasela, but Junior Mendieta's spot-kick was saved by shot-stopper Hugo Nyame. The visitors had a bright start as Macuphu opened the scoring in the 14th minute with a first-time strike at the near post after a cut-back by Thabo Matlaba from the left flank. Stellies had the attacking momentum in the latter stages of the second stanza but could not trouble Nyame although they denied John Maduka's charges opportunities on counter-attacks.
