PALAPYE: Notwane and cross-town rivals, Broadhurst United sailed past locals Morupule Wanderers and Motlakase Power Dynamos respectively to advance to the last 16 stage of the Orange FA Cup.

That was achieved through penalty shoot-outs before an impressively packed Palapye Swallows ground on Saturday.

In an early kick-off, Motlakase and United played for 90 minutes to a 0-0 deadlock. The later edged the host 6-5 in the penalty shoot-outs that followed to advance to the next stage of the Cup. The match was played at a snail’s pace under scorching heat.  The host would rue their chances after they had appeared to enjoy an upper hand in the encounter. They dominated the opening minutes, forcing the visitors to commit a series of errors, but failed to profit from a number of the corner kicks they won.
