Stellenbosch are nothing if not fighters, and they took advantage of a scrappy first half from Pirates to equalise through Nathan Sinkala in the 42nd. Pirates, with all their new firepower of some strong signings to add to an already talented squad that underachieved to third place in 2019-20, are battling to find a stride early in this campaign as coach Josef Zinnbauer searches for his best combinations. Against Steve Barker's resilient Cape Winelands team Bucs were unconvincing in the first half, though upped the tempo and pressed Stellenbosch to create some solid chances in the second, failing to profit from them. Zinnbauer gave a debut to new Ghanaian international signing Richard Ofori in goal.
Stellenbosch’s equaliser came from left-back Paseka Mako giving the ball away deep in his half, but was not undeserved. Skelem held the ball up, and laid it off to the right for Zitha Macheke to cross, danger Zambian Sinkala rising to head past Ofori. Bucs’ left-hand side of defence was exposed again as it was caught square for Ashley du Preez to run through and force a block from Ofori when the striker had Skelem free inside, as Pirates were fortunate to go to the break level.

Stellenbosch, once they settled as the promoted team last season, were tough to crack in the mould of their no-nonsense coach Barker, and ended a decent 10th. As Bucs had to be content with early half-chances, Stellenbosch left-back Mark van Heerden's free-kick in the 26th was missed by Vincent Pule at the far post allowing Robyn Johannes to direct the ball at the head of Lelethu Skelem, who headed inches over an exposed goal. For Pirates, Kabelo Dlamini’s dangerous shot was deflected off Alan Robertson for a corner. Deon Hotto’s resultant delivery was headed down by Pule as Dlamini attempted to control metres in front of the line, Nyauza stretching a leg to connect as Bucs scrambled their opener.

Bucs grew in forcefulness after the break, increasingly pinning Stellies back, as substitute Thabiso Monyane saw a shot blacked for a corner, from which Nyauza’s free header went inches wide. In the 70th Happy Jele punted up from his own half and another substitute, Zakhele Lepasa, ran through strongly, holding off defender Sibusiso Mthethwa. The pacy forward got the touch past Langeveldt, but without strength and centreback Robertson was able to get back and clear from centimetres in front of the line.
