PALAPYE: Motlakase Power Dynamos waited until death to salvage a 3-3 draw against Calendar Stars in a dull encounter Saturday afternoon at Palapye Swallows ground.

Chouka were the first to draw a card. Two minutes from first whistle, they had a goal disallowed for an offside. Bakang Makgaloke had set Meti Oitsile up and the wing attacker buried. They had four corners in the opening minutes. Stars knocked twice before they stunned the hosts in the 10th minute. The visitors’ attackers sprung into a poor back pass.

The goalkeeper was closed down and failed to clear. Goitseone Mponang’s shot beat a hapless defender between the posts for a first goal. Temperatures were soaring and the pace was low. While the hosts tried to build with possessional play, Stars plucked long balls into Chouka’s box and looked dangerous on attack.
