LOBATSE: Extension Gunners moved to seventh place on the log after a much needed 2-0 win over Black Forest here on Saturday. Gunners were off to a bright start, pressing Magoleng in their own half.

The visitors’ keeper, Itumeleng Selapa had a tough first half as Ronald Olaki and Mandla Mgadla came knocking from the wings.

Magoleng were more visible as the half closed out with, Tiro Pheresi and Gofaone Mabaya’s effort unrewarded. The second stanza saw speed added to the game. Forest’s Koketso Majafi coordinated visitor’s efforts at goal, but Katlego Mbise was solid between Gunners’ posts. Gunners’ Kenanao Kgetholetsile and Ofentse Mmipi were introduced with Kudzanai Machazani and Thabo Metlhayotlhe making way respectively.
