SA soccer chugs along

Another weekend of South African football and the big guns (excluding Sundowns) were firing:

Bidvest Wits 1 - 4 Kaizer Chiefs
Orlando Pirates 4 - 2 Thanda Royal Zulu FC
SuperSport United 2 - 0 AmaZulu
Golden Arrows 1 - 1 Bloem Celtic
Free State Stars 1 - 1 Mamelodi Sundowns

Chiefs in particular needed a big win after the loss to Pirates but the log still remains very open after 9 rounds.

Chiefs' latest recruit Nigerian striker Ibe Ogbonna scored twice - once from open play and once from the penalty spot, while skipper Jimmy Tau took a lot of credit for marshalling the Chief's defence.

Golden Arrows - 19
SuperSport United - 17
Bidvest Wits - 17
Kaizer Chiefs - 15
Mamelodi Sundowns - 15
Orlando Pirates - 15
Ajax Cape Town 13
