Luso Africa FC’s second and first sides played against Benoni Northerns FC, on Saturday, at Hattingh Park, in Primrose East.
The second team’s match was a Super League Reserves fixture, while the first teams was a Super League match.
Luso’s first team joined the audience in cheering on the second team as they waited their turn.
The first half saw a dominant Luso side which was later rewarded by a fine goal from Brandon Hendricks.
Fair-play gave way until half-time.
Luso was missing in the second half and Northerns took full advantage of that and landed a bended shot which defeated Luso’s goalkeeper, Dillan Ribeiro.
In what seemed like two minutes after their first goal, Northerns put a second one into the net.
With a 2-1 score in favour of Northerns, Luso reverted back to a full-on defence formation, with very little attack.
Though Luso’s robust defence ensured no more goals from Northerns, it also led to them not scoring any more goals.
A few attempts were witnessed from Luso but none were successful.
Luso’s second team lost 2-1 to Benoni Northerns FC.
Another greatly anticipated fixture was that of the first teams.
Luso’s side dominated from the beginning right through a penalty shot within minutes of start of the first half.
Just before half-time, another goal was scored by Luso.
Luso secured their 2-0 lead until the end of the match.
