AmaZulu FC were humbled by Sekhukhune United in an encounter that was played at Emirates Airline Park in Johannesburg.
Usuthu were oozing with confidence having qualified for the Caf Champions League group stage for the club's history over the weekend and coach Benni McCarthy was now looking to mastermind a win over Sekhukhune.
However, two second-half goals from Willard Katsande and Chibuike Ohizu inspired Sekhukhune to a well-deserved 2-0 victory as they brought McCarthy's side down to earth.
Babina Noko dominated the game and created the better chances with goalkeeper Veli Mothwa forced to produce fine saves to deny Pogiso Mahlangu and Seth Parusnath in the first-half.
