Uniao Flamengo Santos came from behind to hold Killers Giants to a 2-2 draw during the Debswana First Division-South League match on Saturday afternoon at Fighters Ground.

Stanley Morirwa broke the hearts of Santos supporters with a strike in the 4th minute after a defensive blunder. The goal brought confidence in Giants play as they dominated possession. Santos had the first attempt at goal in the 18th minute through Kaelo Mashiakgomo’s header that was saved by Richard Mampane.

Giants’ hard work paid off in the 27th minute when Gofaone Mabaya got the second goal with a brilliant shot from outside the box. Santos’ appeals for a penalty fell on deaf ears in the 31st minute after their player was fouled inside the box.
