TLOKWENG: Tumisang Orebonye’s solitary strike helped Township Rollers move to the third position on the log with a 1-0 win over Prisons XI in a BTC Premiership game played at the Royal Aria Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

Seven minutes into game, Tlhalefo Molebatsi failed to give Popa the lead after a brilliant solo run but saw his effort saved by the goalkeeper. Phenyo Molefhe on the other end shot over the crossbar from inside the box before Galabye Moyana had his free kick parried over the bar on the 12th and 15th minutes respectively. Popa enjoyed a larger share of the ball possession but failed to open the scores as the teams went into the break level at 0-0 after a rather uninspiring first half.

Percy More shot over the bar three minutes into the second half as the visitors looked to get in front early on. Popa were gifted a goal after Dues Bukenya headed into Orebonye’s path and the striker did not make any mistake and slotted home in the 61st minute.
