GALLERY: Tough day for Spurs

Brakpan Spurs had a tough time on Saturday as they were well beaten by FC Amadino at the Brakpan Sports Grounds.

Spurs started the match as the stronger side as they held most of the ball possession in the first 20 minutes of the match. Unfortunately for Brakpan they were unable to create too many scoring chances during that period.

Amadino were the first to score from a free kick as they looked dangerous whenever they counter-attacked.

That’s when the hosts sprung to life and forced saves out of the opposition keeper as they kept pushing forward using their wings.

They eventually scored through Sdumo Munene just before half-time.

The second half saw the floodgates open as Amadino turned up the proverbial ante. They scored early after half-time and had the hosts in trouble.

A third goal for the visitors came before Spurs were given hope when Lungelo Mathebula pulled one back for his side.

That was the last time the match was close as Amadino scored two more times to finish the match at 5-2.

Brakpan will be looking forward to turning things around this weekend when they face Bedfordview in an away match.
