Looking for more success... Lioli |
We are neck-and-neck
heading into next weekend’s Clasico, the Super Derby between Lioli and Matlama.
Thanks to wins
for both today, Lioli and Matlama will meet next Saturday level on points at
the top of the Vodacom Premier League. It is the most exciting outcome and next
weekend’s meeting is a mouth-watering prospect.
Lioli and
Matlama set up their clash with differing wins this afternoon.
Champions
Lioli were made to work hard for a 1-0 win over a plucky Kick4Life while
Matlama relatively cruised to a 3-1 victory over Liphakoe.
Lioli were
given a difficult afternoon by Leslie Notši’s Kick4Life. The host side was well
organised and made it tough for Tse Nala
to play their usual expansive game. Lioli’s winner came from the penalty spot
thanks to in-form midfielder Jeremea Kamela. It was Kamela’s third goal in as
many games.
Matlama kept
in touch with Lioli by outplaying Liphakoe 3-1. Tse Putsoa striker Motebang Sera was again on target, taking his
tally to 12 goals at the top of the goal-scoring charts.
Elsewhere, LDF
got back to winning ways after two successive goalless draws with a 1-0 win
over Likila United in Butha-Buthe thanks to a Mojela Letsie penalty. Sohle-Sohle have been on bad run of
form. In fact, today’s win was only their second in the league since the turn
of the year (two wins in 10 games). The loss heaps pressure on Likila who will
drop into the relegation if Linare manage a positive result against Bantu
tomorrow.
In Roma,
Rovers and LCS played to a 0-0 draw. The result is more significant to Rovers
who are trying to escape relegation than Masheshena
who are guaranteed to finish third this season.
Thanks to the
points, the Dynamites have moved up to tenth. Two points above the relegation
zone.
