win after being 1-1 at half-time.
In the 23rd minute, from a corner kick, the ball finds Marc van Heerden, who heads into the box; despite the keeper hauling it in, the ball crosses the line to put City ahead. But that lead didn't last long as Ashley Du Preez equalized to the delight of the well-supported Amakhosi fans in Cape Town. Du Preez attacks and runs through to stay ahead of the defenders and slaps the ball through the keeper's legs and into the back of the net.
In added time at full-time, Castillo was in the right place from a long-range ball as he struck the ball, which deflected off Keets' calf and found the net, and inches Chiefs close to silverware.In times of uncertainty you need journalism you can trust.
