Pretoria Callies needed penalties to overcome Cape Town All Stars for a spot in the Nedbank Cup semi-finals on Sunday afternoon.
Pule Maraisane and Waseem Isaacs led the line for All Stars, while former SuperSport United duo Thabiso Nkoana and Atusaye Nyondo did duty for the Tshwane outfit.
All Stars looked to hit the front from the first few exchanges following a free-kick, but goalkeeper Itumeleng Lesu made a fantastic double save before Nkoana threatened at the other end.
However, All Stars regained momentum minutes from the half-hour mark and hit the front after Isaacs beat Lesu to a ball over the top before slotting into an empty net.
The Beautiful Birds were able to level matters through Sipho Sibiya after the Vhadau Vha Damani defence was exposed on the stroke of half-time.
Joseph Mhlongo set-up Sibiya, who headed past Washington Arubi to make it 1-1 heading into the half-time break - scoring his second goal of the campaign in the process.
It took just seven minutes for the hosts to restore their lead through Rhulani Manzini, who ended his six-match goal drought.
Mogakolodi Ngele was the provider as the Botswana international s cross was headed home by Manzini to make it 2-1 to Tshakhuma.
The goal did not deter the Beautiful Birds as they launched attacks and they managed to restore parity through Vuyo Mere.
