Within 14 minutes Wits coach Gavin Hunt had replaced both his front two, Mxolisi Macuphu and Elias Pelembe coming on for Gift Motupa and Domingo.
Highlands were their characteristic compact bundle of energy and physicality at their Makhulong stronghold, and appeared quite comfortably headed for inflicting a second league defeat in succession on Wits.
But a controversial penalty was awarded by referee Victor Gomes, for an apparent hand-ball by Highlands substitute Bevan Fransman that no-one in the stands saw, and with the match not televised nor were there TV replays to clarify the matter.Gomes had handed out five yellow cards from the 81st minute on, and just two before that.
It was the Clever Boys’ Haashim Domingo who saw a drive from outside the area tipped over by Highlands goalkeeper Marlon Heugh. Shalulile picked himself up to slot crisply past goalkeeper Brandon Petersen into the top-left corner.
