SAFA Sedibeng Hollywood League double header lives up to expectation
After the game, no coach would commit to who would be crowned league champions at the end of the season.
SHARPEVILLE.- South African Football Association (SAFA) Sedibeng Hollywood Men Region League double header lived up to expectations at the George Thabe Stadium on Saturday.
It was a great advert for local football between Ben 10 FC and Moponisi FC, formerly Mmabatho FC. This mouth- watering game lived up to expectations, with both teams displaying a high standard of football.
Both teams appreciated ball possession. This game was decided in the second half with the host Ben 10 FC beating Moponisi FC 2-0. However, the score is not a true reflection of the game as Moponisi FC missed golden opportunities.
The game went to half-time with both teams locked 0-0. Ben 10 FC came in the second stanza more purposefully, taking the game to Moponisi. This game will go down as one of the best games in the league so far this season.
In the second game, which formed part of a double header, Perfect Academy beat Star Boys Academy 2-0. Perfect Academy is the current log leader. Star Boy Academy came into this game second on the log table. However, Sedibeng Ster Sport still has to confirm the latest log standing.
After the game, no coach would commit to who would be crowned league champions at the end of the season. They told Sedibeng Ster Sport that it is too early to start thinking about the league title. However, as things stand, Perfect Academy is the log leader.
Back to the games, local soccer fans went home entertained with a high standard of football. The game produced a goal thriller on the day. It was action-packed, and soccer fans enjoyed every moment of action. It is too early to tell, but these four teams will be among those challenging for the league title at the end of the season if their current form is anything to go by. In another SAFA Sedibeng Hollywood Men Regional League match, NWU Vaal FC beat VUT FC 2-1 in the derby match at Isak Steyl Stadium.
Metro Stars FC and Boipatong FC played to a goalless draw in another league match played at the same venue over the weekend. At printing time, Sedibeng Ster Sport was still waiting for the rest of the weekend’s results.
