Shock Averted

Notwane were tipped to peel away from their recent poor form with victory over the Palapye side but Motlakase held on for a precious away point. Notwane's lowest point this season is a 2-1 loss to rookies, Killer Giants. The giants are still searching for their first win of the season and remain holed up in the relegation zone.

For Motlakase, it was the second unbeaten game after routing defending champions, Gaborone United 4-1 in a shock result last weekend. The lightweights could have repeated the feat had it not been for a late charge from Notwane.
