Ghetto Derby Ends In Stalemate

FRANCISTOWN: The 2009-2010 be MOBILE Premier League season finally got underway in Francistown before hundreds of supporters who witnessed a pulsating soccer display by ECCO City Greens and TAFIC. Though the game failed to produce goals, the supporters got their money's worth.

The duel started slowly but sprang to life in the second half when the two sides went for each other in a thrilling see-saw battle. In the 52nd minute, Teko Molapisi of TAFIC went agonisingly close with a header from outside the penalty box. Moments later, it was Mamojadiskie on the attack after winning a midfield battle but the good chance did not yield fruits as the ball flew over the bar. Both defences were on high alert with the likes of Trinity Nko, Ontse Ntesa and Keabetswe Jenamiso outstanding in the ECCO rearguard.

ECCO tried several times to penetrate the TAFIC defence but were stopped in their tracks. On the few occasions they got through, TAFIC goalkeeper Aaron Molebatsi came to the rescue.
