Tshakhuma Na Ndilani collected maximum points at the expense of Cobra Stars in their MMK Administrators League match at the Levubu Rugby Stadium on Sunday.
The visitors from Tshisaulu committed suicide by setting offside traps, but they could not pull it off. They were severely punished for that. Takalani Mulaudzi went loose from the middle of the park and beat the keeper with a half volley five minutes into the game. The defenders of Cobra Stars just watched as Mulaudzi scored an easy goal.
Cobra Stars were the first to effect change to their starting line-up. They introduced Enos Madzhuta for Phathutshedzo Mulaudzi in the 18th minute. Fhatuwani Nemusumani of TNN was also reprimanded with a card for dangerous play in the 29th minute.
Takalani Mulaudzi completed his brace in the 34th minute. He again beat the offside trap and sent the keeper the wrong way. The players and officials of Stars were not happy with the referee's decision to remain silent when Mulaudzi scored. They argued that Mulaudzi had scored the goal from an offside position. The situation was calmed when the keeper of Stars, Nnditsheni Sigaba, was booked for a prolonged argument with the referee. The score was 2-0 at half time.
Sedzazwau Mushoma scored the third for TNN in the 76th minute. He finished off a square pass from Rofhiwa Netshiungani.
