Marumo Gallants remain last in the DStv Premiership, but their form in the 2022-23 Caf Confederation Cup seems likely to carry the Limpopo team to the knockout stages will come as a huge boost to Dylan Kerr’s team.

This from a team that had gone eight games without a win, and lost four in a row, before the Sekhukhune win. Their last victory before that was in the Confed preliminary stages, 3-0 at home to Al Ahly Tripoli on November 9. From Lesiba Nku’s corner from the right Mvelase’s run from the edge of the box was not picked up, allowing the right-back a free header past goalkeeper Youssouf Morou.Gallants might have made it 2-0 when they had another free header 10 minutes later.

Ranga Chivaviro crossed from the right to find strike partner Letsie Koapeng to deflect wide of the right upright.The South African team did double their lead just before the break when Nku’s pass put winger Katlego Otladisa free on the left to cross low, big Chivaviro getting ahead of a marker to finish at the near post.There were barely any chances in the second half as again St Eloi battled for any sort of rhythm on their patchy home surface.
