Nico Dent Rollers' Hopes

Nico United shocked the Premier League champions, Township Rollers with a 2-0 drabbing. The game was played in front of a fully packed Selebi-Phikwe stadium on Saturday. The game seemed to be destined for a goalless draw but two quick goals by Master Masitara and Bernard Semakwezi came from nowhere to seal victory for Majombolo.

During the entire game, Rollers defence was doing a good job only to lose concentration in the dying minutes of the match. The game started with Nico playing deep in their own half, defending in numbers. This was due to the pressure that Rollers was putting on them right from the start. Rollers had  a set piece on the 3rd minute which was delivered by Edwin Olerile after Sekhana Koko was brought down. Mapalastina continued dominating the game with Onalethata Tshekiso and Koko launching attacks.
