Kaizer Chiefs were crowned Home of Legends Cup champions after defeating Mamelodi Sundowns 5-4 on penalties at the Nelson Mandela Bay Stadium.
Goalkeeper Brandon Peterson, Inacio Miguel, Dillon Solomons and Nkosingiphile Ngcobo were given starts after the win over Golden Arrows, while Masandawana recalled the likes of Lucas Ribeiro, Marcelo Allende and Arthur Sales.
Masandawana enjoyed a difficult start with the Soweto giants going all out and came close to finding the opener through a header by Miguel, but he picked out the side-netting.
In spite of it all, the defending league champions proved resolute all-round with the Soweto giants called to work as goalkeeper Peterson tipped a probing delivery into touch.
Solomons should've put the boys from Naturena in front through a powerful strike from afar, but Sanele Tshabalala reacted in the nick of time to guide for a corner-kick.
There were no substitutions were ahead of the commencement of the second period, as the Amakhosi and Masandawana continued to go the length in trying to unlock one another.
Chiefs showed their hand from the bench ten minutes from resuming and saw Yusuf Maart come in for the exciting Mfundo Vilakazi, who scored in the semi-final win over Arrows.
The chances remained in short supply even in the second period which saw the clash tightly contested and offered little offensive intensity through all notable variants.
Masandawana gained loads of energy ten minutes to full-time and put the opposite Peterson in a spot of bother before battering the post in the same sequence of events.
As it finished goalless, a penalty shoot-out came to determine the winner and the Amakhosi netted fiver of their penalties, whereas Masadawana one in sudden death as the Soweto giants claimed the victory.
