In their SAB League match that was played at the Makwarela Stadium on Sunday afternoon, Vhembe FET College and Ngwenani Young Chiefs shared the glory with a 2-2 draw.

The absence of Rudolph Sithole in the starting lineup for the FET was evident from the first whistle. The strikers rarely received some pre-cooked passes as there was nobody to win and distribute the balls to the goal poachers. No goal was seen during the first half, despite numerous attempts by both sides.

The students from the FET college were the first to blow the trumpet. Their goal came in the 46th minute. Pfano Rambani, who came on as a substitute for Dakalo Nedzinga, was on target after some dual moves with Tshifhiwa Mphadzha. Young Chiefs retaliated two minutes afterwards. Ndivhuwo Khwashaba beat the offside trap and showed the keeper, Rhulani Sambo, the wrong way.

Vhembe introduced Pfunzo Razwimisani and Talifhani Matange for Stanley Tshidade and Mpheni Razwimisani respectively in the 64th minute. The replacements proved to be a clever move on the part of the technical team as they took the lead again soon afterwards.

Pfano Rambani headed home after a square pass from Tshifhiwa Mphadzha. Young Chiefs did not just stand aside and look; instead, they replaced their keeper, Tshimangadzo Mulovhedzi, with Ali Themeli. The referee, Mr Joseph Mammba, warned Thili Ratshibvumo of Young Chiefs with a card in the 74th minute. This after he had kicked the keeper of Vhembe, Rhulani Sambo, in the chest.

Young Chiefs were awarded a penalty in the 78th minute. A defender of Vhembe handled within the box and Mammba did not hesitate to point at the spot. Thili Ratshibvumo made no mistake and the final score was 2-2.
