Ball in Motlakase�s court as Highlanders slip

Tuesday, December 12, 2017

PALAPYE: The ball is now in Motlakase Power Dynamos’ court after BR Highlanders were held to a stalemate away to Green Lovers. Motlakase could finish the First Division North first round at the apex.

The first round was put to bed at the weekend, except for Chouka and Francistown City Greens who have an outstanding fixture. The game was postponed due to lack of venue and will be played on Saturday at the Francistown Stadium.

Chouka are smarting from a 1-0 defeat to Mahalapye United Hotspurs on Saturday, and Highlanders still sit top, three points clear. However, the two have a similar goal difference, meaning a win by any margin will take the Palapye side top.

During COVID-19, many of us thought we knew better. We ignored simple rules, we carried on as if the danger was someone else’s problem, and the virus took lives and left our economy on its knees. We are still broke from that experience. Yet now, with FMD...
