Sharps, who came into the game in need of a single point to ensure automatic promotion, had to come from a goal down to draw level twice against the relegation threatened side, thanks to goals by former Premiership stars, Moemedi Moatlhaping and Monageng Thaele.

The visitors looked threatening in the first minute as they had their go at a goal as early as the fifth minute, but Thabani Ngwenya flew over the post.
