Mulenga put the Sea Robbers in the lead just eight minutes into the match as got on the end of a Thembinkosi Lorch long pass and finished off coolly. Pirates added a second in the 16th minute through Maela but Ayanda Patosi scored twice in the second stanza, first volleying the ball into the roof of the net after a chest control then he added a direct free-kick from 24 yards out to draw Cape Town City level.
Striker Justin Shonga came on with six minutes left to play but he could not help Pirates to victory, 2-2 the match ended.
