Arrows, Birds share the spoils

Lamontville Golden Arrows shared the spoils with Moroka Swallows when they drew 2-2 in an entertaining Castle Premiership encounter played at King Zwelithini stadium on Sunday afternoon.

The score was 1-1 at the interval.

The visitors took the lead as early as the 18th minute when Samuel Ngobene headed in Pitso Lekone’s crossed ball. After this goal, the Arrows players pushed forward in numbers in search of an equaliser.

Their efforts were rewarded in the 33rd minute when Papi Zothwane pulled one back for the home side.

In the 54th minute Dennis ”Chesa Mpama” Lota put the Birds in the lead for the second time in this game to the delight of their followers who came out in numbers to cheer them.

Their celebration did not last for the entire game, though, as Lucky ”Y2K” Sibeko equalised in the 73rd minute after receiving a good cross from Tsepo Ntsoane. — Sapa
