Township Rollers did not let the recent boardroom issues affect the team as they came from a goal behind to beat Orapa United 2-1 on Saturday evening.

The Botswana Premier League (BPL) encounter, which was played under floodlights, had all ingredients of a top tier as seven yellow cards and a red card were issued while an own goal nearly decided the contest between the third and fourth placed teams in the league.

In the first few minutes of the tie, Rollers forced two consecutive saves from Orapa United goalkeeper, Lesenya Malapela with forwards, Morgan Gaseitsiwe and Terry Uiseb setting the right tone for the fixture.
