Dinaletsana Shine In World Opener

Playing in front a fully packed crowd, Dinaletsana recorded the biggest win margin of the round one matches.

The hosts however showed signs of nerves allowing the visitors to score very quick goals bringing the crowd to a deafening silence. The home team’s attack however soon got to their rhythm with the partnership of Cheludo David (GS) and Pearl Maribe (GA) causing all sorts of problems for the visitors’ defence. Dinaletsana finished the first quarter leading 17-9. In the second quarter, David continued to convert on second attempts while the defence kept it tight against pint sized Malaysian attackers. The team’s marking kept the visitors at bay, taking a 32-16 lead into break after the second quarter.
