Four-Time Champs, Popa Crowned Again

Playing in front of a fair crowd, as early the fifth minute, Tumisang Orebonye found Joel Mogorosi inside but the latter’s headed effort went straight into the keeper’s hands. Two minutes on the other end, Kekaetswe Moloi had his shot saved by Keeagile Kgosipula.

The Jungle Kings came close once again with Hendrick Moyo trying from outside the box but Kgosipula once again saved on the 21st minute. During end-to-end attacks in early stages of the game, Lesego Bosekeng superbly denied Maano Ditshupo from close range on the 24th minute. Two minutes, later Popa were awarded a penalty after Tonderai Nyakunba handled the ball but Bosekeng denied Mogorosi from the spot. Moments later, Motsholetsi Sikele put  in a teasing cross in to the box but Bosekeng dealt with the ball before Galabye Moyana saw his effort going over the bar as the two sides went in to the break level at 0-0.
