Mpheni defenders hammer Tshiozwi

 

Sport  Date: 06 February 2015

 

The current log leaders of Stream E of the MMK Administrators League, Mpheni Home Defenders, hammered Tshiozwi Dynamos 4-1 in their match at Tshiozwi on Sunday.

The match started at a fast pace, with both sides threatening to hit the target. A striker of Defenders, Ndaedzo “Let Them Dance” Mareda, was a difficult man to mark. He eluded the opponents' defence as he kept running from the start of the match. He broke the ice in the 26th minute when he caught the keeper off guard.

Sakkie Makhuvha scored his team's second goal after finishing off a square pass from Moses Lisoga seven minutes later, making the half-time score 2-0 in favour of Defenders.

Dynamos' right back, Nyathi Muvhango, was booked for an illegal tackle on Marvil Mabatha.
Dynamos' keeper denied Defenders several sure goals through his acrobatic goalkeeping. He stretched to the limit to fist Marvil’s Mabatha's volley out of play for a corner kick. At that stage, the game was 56 minutes old.

Dynamos scored their only goal in the 60th minute when Mashudu Nengovhela hit the net after receiving an excellent square ball from China Maruli. Moses Lisoga of Defenders registered his name on the score-sheet when he tried his luck from the 35m area. Dynamos' keeper, Vhuthu Netshiobvani, misjudged the flight of the ball and saw it cross the goal line.

After the goal, Dynamos threatened to retaliate after bringing their top striker, Velaphi Mphaphuli, back to the middle of the park. Mphaphuli distributed dangerous passes to his front runners, who shot astray on numerous occasions. Ndaedzo Mareda scored his team's fourth goal late in the match and completed his brace.
