Madodonga United Stars won the Unity Tournament when they beat Ravele United 6-5 on penalties in the final that was played at the Tshiozwi grounds on Sunday. The score was locked at 2-all at the end of regulation time.

Ravele should have opened their account in the seventh minute. Pule Munyumpudi dribbled past two Stars defenders, but the keeper, Nditsheni Musekwa, saved the ball. The team from Kutama should have scored a little later. Sipho Ragimana shot wide, with only the keeper to beat.

Ravele opened the score when Rendani Galedane received a neat pass from Wisdom Mandiwana and hit the target. Tshepo Thovhokale increased the margin when he blasted in a loose ball after a scramble within the box to make the score 2-0.

United replaced Remember Kutama and Shumani Mahuwa with Calvin Tshivhulawa and Wesley Magodi respectively late in the game. That proved to be a clever move on the part of the United technical side. John Ravhutsi was brought down inside the penalty area and the referee pointed to the white spot. Livy Rambau made no mistake from the spot.

Tendani Masindi of Ravele was red-carded for a second bookable offence.

Their equaliser came in the 88th minute. Peter Ramaano dribbled past two defenders in a row and passed the ball to the unmarked Livy Rambau, who completed his brace.

The two teams then went to penalty shoot-out.
