barker secures historic 100th win amid weekend drama

The triumphant coach Steve Barker clocked his 100th win for Stellenbosch FC at Orlando's 'Slaughterhouse' on Sunday, in one of Mzansi's weekend football highlights.

It was not a good weekend for Soweto's hordes of footy fans because 24 hours earlier, their hallowed Kaizer Chiefs left them with a sickening feeling after they were held to a 2-2 draw, despite leading 2-0 early in the match. Stellenbosch's win meant that no Premiership team was unbeaten at this stage and this hotly contested clash is one of the takeaways of Mzansi's weekend football.

Orlando Pirates had boasted a remarkable start to their Premiership campaign, winning their first seven matches a feat unprecedented in the PSL-era of the famous club's history. Yet, their momentum was abruptly halted by a Stellenbosch side that had just returned from a taxing trip to Mali.
