Today’s match-up sees a Tshwane Derby as crosstown rivals slug it out for top honours. SuperSport United defender, Grant Kekana, and Mamelodi Sundowns goalkeeper, Reyaad Pieterse go to war to as they try and progress in the Lockdown League.
In a thrilling encounter between FC Barcelona (Pieterse) and Liverpool (Kekana), the Reds started the better of the two teams. Despite playing possession football in the early stages of the game, Barcelona were devastating on the counter.
Senegalese international Sadio Mane seemed to cause a bit of controversy as he lined up for both teams, but seemed to shine playing alongside Lionel Messi, Ousmane Dembele and Antoine Griezman, as one of the PSL stars claimed, “I’ve got the original Mane”.
Before the end of this one-sided battle, the word, ‘pap’ was thrown around by the match-winner. The LaLiga outfit ran away with the game, despite the English giants grabbing one goal back 10 minutes before full time. Makes sure you watch all the action!
Complaints and questions about wearing strange headgear indoors seemed to be the order of the day, however in a hugely exciting second Lockdown League fixture, stay tuned for more entertaining couch football, as we continue staying indoors.
