Another tricky hurdle ahead of Munaca FC

They managed to hold Blackpool FC to a 1-1 draw at the Rabali Stadium last Saturday, and now Munaca FC have another mountain to climb. They will host Mikhado FC in their ABC Motsepe League match at the Makhado Show Grounds on Saturday afternoon.

A quick glance at Mikhado’s performance in last Saturday’s game against Vondwe XI Bullets shows that Munaca will be lucky if they manage to hold Mikhado to a draw. Ikwasha Fhedzi, as they are affectionately called, were unstoppable when they brutally walloped Vondwe XI Bullets 4-1 at the Rabali Stadium.

Whether the defenders of Munaca will have enough strength to stop the Mikhado strikers in Tau Rankoko and Rendani Thavhana remains to be seen. On the other hand, Mikhado must keep an eye on Munaca’s playmakers, Aboudou Houessou and Mojagobedi Kopane, or else they will be embarrassed.

Vondwe XI Bullets must beat Ablex United FC to restore their lost pride. They will meet at the Tshifudi Stadium. XI Bullets are still in mourning, following their 1-4 defeat suffered at the hands of Mikhado FC last Saturday.

Giyani Happy Boys will enjoy the home-ground advantage in their match against Mpheni Home Defenders at the Xikukwani Stadium outside Giyani. Home Defenders and Happy Boys shared the spoils with their opponents in last weekend’s matches. Home Defenders played to a goalless draw with Musina United, while Happy Boys shared the glory with Emmanuel FC in a 1-1 draw.

Emmanuel FC will entertain Blackpool FC at the Giyani Stadium. Mighty FC will host Ditlou FC at the Seshego Stadium. Mighty FC are still battling to come to terms with the 1-4 defeat they suffered at the hands of Magezi FC last Saturday.

Phinnet City FC will play against Dennilton Callies at the University of Limpopo Campus Stadium. Tubatse United will fight for league points with Ngoabe City Motors at the Ga-Motodi Stadium, while Magezi FC and Eleven Fast Tigers will meet at the Manamela Stadium outside Polokwane.
