CT City end Chiefs' unbeaten run

Tashreeq Morris of Cape Town City celebrates his goal with teammates

Cape Town City ended Kaizer Chiefs' eight game unbeaten run in all competitions following their 2-1 victory at the FNB Stadium in the DStv Premiership on Wednesday.

Gavin Hunt decided to keep his faith in his squad by naming an unchanged team to the one that drew 1-1 with Baroka FC at the Peter Mokaba Stadium last Thursday.

Tashreeq Morris should've handed City the lead in the 19th minute but blazed his effort over the bar but he redeemed himself three minutes later when Terrence Mashego played a beautiful ball into the feet of Morris, who finished from close range.

The Citizens should've doubled their lead in the 28th minute after Bradley Rhulani played a ball to Fagrie Lakay, who poked his effort through the legs of Khune but the Amakhosi keeper made his way back to save the ball on the line at the second attempt.

Peter Leeuwenburgh was called into action just after the half hour mark when he tipped Ngezana's effort over the crossbar for a corner.

The visitors managed to hold off Chiefs' late onslaught as the game went to the half time break 1-0 in favour of City.

City came out guns blazing in the second half and made it 2-0 in the 51st minute when Ralani's shot from just outside the area took a deflection before rolling into the net with Khune left rooted to the spot.

Amakhosi should've reduced the deficit a minute later but Samir Nurkovic saw his effort saved off the line by Taariq Fielies.
