The Ostriches had to come from a goal down to advance on a 3-1 aggregate.

The match was played on damp pitch after the downpours that occurred across the country. Just 18 minutes into the match, the home side opened the scoreboard as Pako Gaofose got at the end of a good move by Systems and tapped in from close range. Two minutes later, from the free kick, Mbatshi Elias sought a quick response, but his effort was easily collected. On the 31st minute, Gaofose came close with a curled shot towards the far top corner but missed by a whisker. As both sides struggled with pitch, Systems took a 1-0 lead into the break.
