JWANENG: Diamond mining town sides, Jwaneng Galaxy and Orapa United played to a 1-1 draw in the first leg of the Mascom Top 8 semi-finals played at the Galaxy Stadium yesterday.

A goal apiece from Thero Setsile and Lawrence Ndunga could not separate the two teams, but away side Orapa would be happier with the draw, as they host Galaxy in a fortnight. 

The hosts controlled the proceedings in the first quarter hour of the match, but failed to have a shot at goal. Gift Moyo had the first shot on target in the 19th minute but his headed effort was well saved by Lesenya Malapela. A minute later, Setsile’s long range strike took a deflection and beat Malapela at the near post to give the host the lead.
