Lephalale Young Killers held Phungo All Stars to a 1-all draw in a Safa Vodacom match played at Eltivillas on Saturday.
Stars were the superior side from the onset and they put their opponents under immense pressure. Killers missed a golden opportunity in the eighth minute, when veteran Eric Thibe shot wide from the penalty area.
Realising that their midfield was weary, the technical department of the Lephalale lads introduced Sibusiso Kubini for Letsatse Monyetsi.
The second half was characterised by dangerous play from the home team's players. In an attempt to calm the situation, the referee flashed some yellow cards in quick succession. Ivan Mahangwahaya of Stars dribbled past three defenders in a row and sent a well-cooked pass to unmarked Justice Rasebotse. He beat keeper Mosima Thsabutse easily.
After the goal, Killers started to chance the action as the home team enjoyed ball possession. Phumudzo Ramagoma of Stars could not make the grade as the opponents used him as their freeway and the technical staff replaced him with Fhatuwani Nkhumeleni. Lutendo Mulaudzi of the home team scored an own goal when he tried to clear the ball.
