Germiston City FC’s u-17 Super League side took on Mondeor Meteors FC in Mondeor, last Sunday.
“It was an exciting game which ebbed and flowed, with both teams matching each other in all departments and even down to the goals,” said the local club’s communications officer, Peter Oliver.
Germiston were first to score a fine goal in the first 15 minutes.
“Mondeor hit back in the 34th minute with a soft goal, where the Germiston goalkeeper failed to keep his eye on the ball and let it roll under his foot,” said Oliver.
“In the second half Germiston came out playing more striking football, and were soon rewarded with a well-taken goal.
“Mondeor hit back almost immediately and equalised, again.”
Germiston continued to put pressure on the Mondeor defence and were soon back in the lead by 3-2.
“A penalty after what seemed a clean tackle brought Mondeor back into the game, 3-3,” said Oliver.
“Germiston applied more pressure on the Mondeor side and were soon 4-3 ahead.
“Sensing victory Germiston were not about to let their lead slip again and were rewarded with a well-worked goal, three minutes from time.”
Germiston won the game 5-3.
