A disappointing end to the first round but still one that we can take many positives from. The match itself was an entertaining one for the fans with both teams attacking at will.
An early defensive lapse handed our opponents an early lead but we immediately showed intent to come back and almost did when Seth Parusnath missed a header after some good build up play. We continued to probe for an equalizer but the game was handed to Amazulu when Ntuli blatantly dragged the ball with his hand before being fouled, an incident that took place right in front of the referee.
We then had a mountain to climb and were unable to convert any of the chances we created.
We now look forward to having back our injured and suspended players for the 2nd round, namely: Buthelezi, Nkombelo, Zuke, Ndwandwe, Phiri and Bilankulu.
