Golden Arrows head coach Vusumuzi Vilakazi refused to criticise goalkeeper Sifiso Mlungwana for his error in the draw with Mamelodi Sundowns.
The Arrow shot-stopper fumbled Sipho Mbule's header into the back of the net, as the two sides settled for a share of the spoils at the Princes Magogo Stadium.
Despite the error, the Arrows tactician felt Mlungwana and the team were impressive on the night.
"It was a great performance I must say. I think everything we spoke about with the players in our team talk we sticked to the plan," Vilakazi told SuperSport after the game.
"Obviously second-half we knew very well that they will be desperate and come at us because we were still leading 1-0. But I think defensively we were strong, it was just an honest mistake from Sifiso but he had a great performance.
"But I think I must just commend my players in terms of the hard work and the work rate today, it was top class."
Vilakazi added that the point will aid their fight to secure a top -eight finish this season.
"It's a point that will add, when we go to our next game if we win, it will make a huge difference. So it was very important for us to come out of here with three points or worse result a draw, as it happened," he continued.
"But I'm happy with a point and we'll build on that, obviously four games unbeaten, we just need to be consistent in terms of winning games, so we will work on that. Some of the things cannot be rectified overnight but this team is coming, slowly but surely."
