Galaxy Slides Into Top Eight :: Mmegi Online

Jwaneng Galaxy moved into the top half of the Botswana Premier League table following a 3-1 win over Masitaoka in a encounter played in the National Stadium on Saturday afternoon. Both sides went into the game with some little bit of pressure after series of poor results over the past few weeks.

The defending champions were on a rampant mood and recorded their second straight win. The home side were dealt an early injury blow as Fortune Thulare had to be replaced by Eric Tjizake after sustaining an injury during warm up. It was Majatlhaga who fired first through Kobamelo Kebaikanye on the eighth minute.

The visitors tried to recover from conceding early into the match with Thabang Sesinyi and Gilbert Baruti orchestrating the team's efforts. On the other end Kebaikanye and the match day skipper, Patrick Kaunda were giving the Galaxy defense a hard time. Despite the two teams efforts, the two goalkeepers were however untroubled until just before the halftime break and Sesinyi notched one after some good build up by his teammates.
