Luso bounce back with win against Musa

Musa United Football Club travelled to Hattingh Park, in Primrose, to face Luso Africa Football Club last Saturday in the recent Eastern Local Football Association (ELFA) Super League clash.
Luso seemed relaxed and slower than usual in the first half and Musa were no better.
As the clock ticked, both teams made no noteworthy successful exchanges, except for fouls. The first half came to an end with no goals on the scoreboard.
In contrast, the second half was completely opposite to the first.
Quick dribbles and tackles were the order of the day.
