On April 17, 2024, a DStv Premiership match took place between SuperSport United and Polokwane City at Lucas Masterpieces Moripe Stadium in Pretoria, South Africa. Polokwane City, missing former Orlando Pirates striker Ndumiso Mabena, made just one change from their previous match. Both teams showed great energy in the early stages with various attempts at goal, but accuracy was lacking.
The game took a turn when Matsatsantsa was reduced to ten men after a red card was shown to goalkeeper Ricardo Goss. SuperSport coach Gavin Hunt had to sacrifice striker Bradley Grobler to bring in a replacement goalkeeper. As a result, Rise and Shine gained the upper hand, and Manuel Kambala missed two good chances just before half-time.
The first goal of the match was scored by Oswin Appollis for Polokwane City, but SuperSport quickly responded with a goal from Etiosa Ighodaro. The match ended in a draw, leaving SuperSport United without a win in the league since their return from the Africa Cup of Nations break. The players involved in the match were Bradley Grobler, Ricardo Goss, Rusike, Magidigidi, Margeman, Hlatshwayo, Baloyi, Lakay, Muthewi, Lungu, Arubi, Allan, Xulu, Dzvukumanja, Rasebotja, Campbell, Ndlovu, Baliti, Sarpunga, Nikani, Mashikinya, Kambala, Appollis, Maphangule, Matuludi, Nkaki, Mapfumo, L. Baloyi, Nana, Chauke, F. Baloyi, Mathebula, Goovadia, Van Heerden, and Nkwe.
