Cape Town City scored five second half goals as they came from behind to beat Baroka FC in a game that ended with both teams playing with ten men.

After being reduced to ten men, Baroka were all over the place in the opening stages of the second half and unsurprisingly conceded three goals in this time. Baroka were reduced to ten men after Train Mokhabi was issued a red-card on the verge of half-time for simulation. Craig Martin put the game beyond any reasonable doubt and added a fourth for City in the 88th minute as he met a cross from Terrence Mashego, heading into the net.

Cape Town to give an additional R10-million to shelters (GroundUp)

A report by the Human Rights Commission into homelessness in Cape Town found a lack of ablution facilities, clean water and homeless shelters for families.

The HRC has suggested that the City use parking spaces as makeshift temporary shelters to accommodate homeless families at night. The shortage of shelters able to accommodate couples and families with children was also highlighted in the report. The report comes on the back of the City’s amended by-law that provides for compliance notices to be issued to people sleeping in public places. Researchers spoke to dozens of homeless people living in the Foreshore area and at the Company’s Garden between August 2021 and March 2022. They are part of our society and we need to embrace them,” said HRC provincial manager Zena Nair at the launch of the report last week. Access to ablution facilities, clean water and shelters for families were among the main issues raised by homeless people living in Cape Town’s city centre.
