Muti headache for First Division officials

A supporter handed a Fighters’ player a bottle with a brown liquid and the player proceeded to pour the substance around his goalpost. In return, a Lesirane supporter jumped onto the field to snatch the bottle with the match in progress.  Not to be outdone, he also threw some sticks into the field.  Fighters won the duel 2-1.

Magagane told Mmegi Sport it was difficult to control such behaviour, which is common among teams.  He said the ‘rituals’ take place before the match and at half time.
