It was Callum Mcallister who scored for the Old Boys and redeemed their confidence as they played a better game overall, towards the end.

“At least the boys are playing a better game now,” said a parent, who positively reflected on Callum’s goal.

Although Old Boys did their best, the fate of the Benoni Young Stars was sealed when Ethen Meiring scored the fourth and final goal for his team.

This left the overall score at the end of the match at 4-1 to the Benoni Young Stars.
