Meanwhile, credit must go to Gunners’ young defender, Finki Mothibi who for the second game in a row kept Muzadzi at bay. Though he is inexperienced, Mothibi executed his duties well. On Friday he once again proved that he is a future national team material. In the dying minutes, Gunners failed to get the equaliser in when a well placed Tsalaile shot into the diving body of Chiefs goalkeeper.
Moremi was at it again in the 90th minute when he denied Muzadzi after being released by Dipheko. Chiefs sealed victory in the referee’s optional time through substitute, Kgopolo “Ndlela” Kgotleng, who cleverly chipped an advancing Moremi. The goal sent Chiefs’ supporters into wild celebrations, accompanied by song and dance. Gunners’ coach, Lawrence Waya congratulated his opponents saying that they were a better team. “As you know, my team is inexperienced,” he said. For Chiefs coach, Beston Chambeshi, it was mission accomplished in his first season with the team. Chiefs won themselves a floating trophy and P45,000 while Gunners received P27,000.
