Maart's forgettable moment

It's been another tought start to a campaign for the Soweto giants, who remain winless in the DStv Premiership under Molefi Ntseki this season.

Two defeats and one draw reads Chiefs' dire record so far this season and Sunday's encounter against TS Galaxy included an forgettable moment for Maart.

Amakhosi's number 8 had a tough time against the silky Lindokuhle Mbatha, who basically recreated Monnapule Saleng's unforgettable moment last season against Mamelodi Sundowns where he but Andile Jali on his backside with some well-timed skill.

Maart was covering ground in a threatening attacking phase for The Rockets before he found himself seated by a composed change of direction from Mbatha. 

Take a look:

The 38-year-old was as lively as ever against Chiefs, leaving Maart for dead with a cheeky shimmy in the 29th minute of the match.

It was an unreal showing from the experienced winger, who was key for Sead Ramovic's men that overcame Amakhosi curtesy of an own-goal from Brandon Peterson.

Sunday's win sees TS Galaxy climb to third in the league table, remaining as one of four unbeaten sides so far in the DStv Premiership.

Have your say on Mbatha's skill on Yusuf Maart, does it outshine Saleng's effort from the previous campaign?
