Given Msimango opened the scoring in the 34th minute with a fine header, beating Boalefa Pule. Young sensation, Aphelele Teto was the one who delivered the cross set-piece.

Teto played the ball across the face of goal and had to watch it sail past goalkeeper Pule and a couple of United defenders before it found Seedat wide on the left.
The Rockets have now collected a tally of seven points after beating DStv defending champions Mamelodi Sundowns and drew with AmaZulu in their first two games of the season.
