Orapa united vs Notwane PIC: PHATSIMO KAPENG

Orapa United started the league campaign on a high note registering the biggest win of the opening weekend. United beat Notwane 4-1 in the Premiership game played at the National Stadium on Sunday afternoon.

The Ostriches took the lead just 10 minutes into the game as Thabiso Boti netted from close range to give the team the lead against his former side. The visitors controlled the proceedings but were wasteful upfront. Boti had a chance to bag a brace but the defence quickly cleared Thero Setsile’s shot from outside the box. Against the run of play, Aobakwe Tshobo was let down by his control inside the box after he was set up by Charles Mujokeri at the half-hour mark. With five minutes to the break, Mbatshi Elias saw his acrobatic effort sail over the bar.

The visitors went into the break leading by a goal. Just 10 minutes in the second half, Tshobo met Thero Ntau’s cross but could not direct it towards goalposts. The Ostriches went on to double the lead with Setsile beating off his marker and slotted to the near post on the 57th minutes. Toronto pulled one back from the spot after Tshobo was brought down inside the box.
