Galaxy breaks Rollers hoodoo

Prior to the game, the two sides had played to three consecutive goalless draws. This was Rollers’s heaviest defeat since the start of last season, and their second of the current campaign.

As early as the ninth minute, Tumisang Orebonye had his effort parried over the bar by Ezekiel Morake which was Rollers’ chance at goal. Rollers kept a lion’s share of the ball for the majority of the half, but failed to break down the opposition defence. The Blues’ patience paid in the 27th minute, when Joel Mogorosi centred for Orebonye. The striker laid for Edwin Moalosi who beat the keeper to the top corner, to give his side the lead. Just nine minutes later, Galaxy levelled matters when Patrick Kaunda caught the opposition defence napping and put a cross for Atisang Batsi who was unmarked inside the box and the midfielder tapped in from close range.
