Police XI maintain their stance

The Jungle Kings on Saturday registered a 2-0 victory over City Polar and retained their position at the top of the First Division South log standings. With four games to play, Police XI opened a three-point lead at the summit with Jwaneng Young Stars sitting close by. From 18 games, Police XI have collected 36 points, suffering only two losses in the process. They also carry a healthy goal difference (21). Young Stars, who are sitting at position two, have so far collected 33 points. Over the weekend, they played to a 0-0 draw against Sand Diamonds. The result gave Police XI a breathing space at the top of the league table.

Meanwhile, high riding Magosi FC’s push to the top also suffered a mini dent when they lost 1-0 to Taung Young Strikers. Magosi, however, also retained their third position on the log with 30 points. Young Strikers are fourth with 29 points. Holy Ghost, who not long ago were fighting for their survival in the league, have since found their mojo. They have moved to position five on the log with 25 points following their 1-0 win over Tlokweng United. Despite playing to a 0-0 draw with title contenders over the past weekend, Sand Diamonds still remain in danger of relegation. They are currently sitting at position 11 with 16 points. Desert Nxau are still languishing at the bottom of the log with just 11 points after suffering a 1-0 defeat to UB Hawks.
