Sport  Date: 09 September 2011

 

Shayandima Disco Five gave away league points when they lost 1-4 to Gwamasenga United Brothers in their SAB league match at the Gwamasenga grounds on Saturday, 3 September.

Disco Five missed a fortune four minutes into the game. They were awarded a penalty after a defender of Brothers, Rendani Mudau, handled within his own danger zone. Godfrey Nelufule shot wide, much to the disappointment of the fans. The referee, Thabelo Tshienda, cautioned Rofhiwa Ganyane of United Brotehrs with a card for a late tackle on Cambio Ratshilivha.

Disco Five finally found the net in the 25th minute. They were awarded a free kick after Rendani Mudau obstructed Godfrey Nelufule outside the box. The score line remained unchanged until the proceedings for the first half came to an end.

Disco Five came close to scoring again when Godfrey Nelufule shot astray from close range. United Brothers found the equalizer in the 57th minute. Matimba Vukea caught the Disco Five keeper, Phumudzo Nemusunda, napping and beat him with a volley.

Vukea was cautioned with a card moments thereafter. This after a rough tackle on Dakalo Matombo. The captain of United Brothers, Oscar Mulangaphuma, scored the second goal after a square pass from Alugumi “Mufunzi” Ramabulana in the 74th minute.

Avhapfani Munyai was on target a little later, following some dual moves with Vukea Matimba. Munyai was replaced with his younger brother, Tshilidzi Munyai, in the 78th minute.

Matimba Vukea beat the offside trap and scored the fourth in the dying minutes to bring the final score to 4-1.
