Goals galore in Dolphins and Peace Makers match

 

Sport  Date: 29 February 2008

 

In their final SAB League match that was played at the Madombidzha grounds on Sunday, Madombidzha Young Dolphins shared the spoils with Tshiungani Peace Makers, when they played to a 4-4 draw.

Young Dolphins were leading 2-0 within the first few minutes. Their first goal came four minutes into the game. Eric Sefilaro found the net after a neat pass from Percy Munonoka. Munonoka hit the target five minutes thereafter from the far right corner.

Peace Makers did not throw in the towel, despite the setback. They initiated some telling moves from the middle of the park. They reduced the deficit by one via Maemu Nethavhani, who headed home after a neat corner kick that was taken by Lutendo Matshavha. Mpho Ndou scored the equalizer in the 24th minute.

Peace Makers were leading 3-2 when the teams adjourned for half time. Their third goal was scored by their diminutive striker, Lutendo Matshavha, who hooked in a loose ball from an awkward angle, following a pass from Baldwin Phungo.

Young Dolphins refused to recognize the leadership of Peace Makers. Rendani "Mayoyo" Ramavhale scored the equalizer nine minutes into the last half. He unleashed a spectacular volley from the centre of the pitch and the keeper of Peace Makers, Nndwamato Tshisikhawe, watched helplessly as the ball hit the back of the net.

Rofhiwa Mugwabana of Young Dolphins was given a yellow card, following an off-the-ball tackle on Rocket Matshavha.

Percy Munonoka scored the Dolphins’ fourth goal in the 74th minute. Lutendo Matshavha scored the equalizer towards the end of the game.
