Tshiozwi Dynamos were crowned champions of the 16 June Soccer Challenge when they beat Tshiozwi Mates at Tshiozwi on Monday.

The match started at a fast pace, with both sides throwing caution to the wind with their fiery play. As if they were campaigning in the same division, Mates gave their elder brothers a run for their money throughout the game.

The strong defender of Dynamos, Vhutshilo Mafunisa, proved to be a force to be reckoned with and he marshalled the defence very well. Dynamos' killer striker, Aluwani “Killer” Nedzamba, was a pleasure to watch. He was everywhere, winning balls from behind and dishing out dangerous passes to the goal poachers time after time.

Vusi Mamburu of Mates was warned with a card for obstructing Velaphi Mphaphuli four minutes towards the end of the first half. Muhangwi Mukosi of  Dynamos was also booked for retaliating, after he was tackled badly by Murendeni Tshidada.

It took Mates 64 minutes to stamp their authority. It was Maanda Nengovhela who brought some smiles to the faces of the Mate’s enthusiastic supporters. He dribbled past several Dynamos defenders in a row and beat the opponents' keeper, Micheal Fhetani, hands down.

Dynamos were all over Mates throughout the second half, but it was difficult for them to find their way through the defence of their opponents. Dynamos capitalised on the slack defence and scored their equalising goal in the 78th minute, when Mashudu Nengovhela's shot hit the net after an excellent pass from Aluwani Nedzamba.

Aluwani Nedzamba scored the winner for Dynamos after Mates' defender, Vusi Mamburu, missed the ball.
