Baroka, who scored first, are a position below Chiefs on 16 points, following their roller-coaster outing this season.<\/p>\n<p>After coming back from a purple patch, where they enjoyed three wins and one draw in four matches, Chiefs were the confident side of the two teams coming into this encounter as they looked to continue with their late push up the standings.<\/p>\n<p>Such that coach Gavin Hunt didn\u2019t change much from the team that played out to a goalless stalemate with Stellenbosch FC, Reeve Frosler getting the nod ahead of youngster Darrel Matsheke. And that tactical change nearly paid dividends for Chiefs.<\/p>\n<p>Lebogang Manyama unleashed a lobbying effort, just outside Baroka\u2019s 18-area, which found an unmarked Frosler, with only goalkeeper Oscarine Masuluke to beat. But the latter unceremoniously saw his efforts sail wide of goal after Masuluke closed down the angle.<\/p>\n<p>That being the only realistic chance of the first half, the two teams headed to the interval still bearing ducks \u2013 after somewhat of a lacklustre outing. But Bakgakga proved why they\u2019ve been Chiefs\u2019 bogey side in the past, having been responsible for their championship failure last season.<\/p>\n<p>Masuluke sent a long-ball into Chiefs\u2019 final third which was flicked on by Evidence Makgopa into the path of Thamsanqa Masiya, who easily slotted past an onrushing Daniel Akpeyi. But Hunt\u2019s men kept the pressure on for an equaliser.<\/p>\n<p>And it came after a Frosler cross towards the face of goal was unfortunately cleared by Goodman Mosele into his own net, with Masuluke in no man\u2019s land. Chiefs piled on the late pressure for a winner but they could only bag a point heading to the Soweto derby on Saturday.<\/p>\n<p><b>IOL Sport<\/b><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; South-Africa.
