Emalahleni FM beat Uniting Forum 5-1 on the soccer field

Emalahleni put the last nail in the coffin after they were awarded a penalty

Emalahleni FM showed that playing soccer, presenting news, and entertainment on the radio is the same. They also show that delivering sermons in a church is different from playing soccer.

This was evident when Emalahleni FM beat Uniting Forum 5-1 during the Linah Malatjie soccer and netball tournament in honour of the late executive mayor of eMalahleni who died in a car accident earlier this year.

The match was a curtain-raiser for the soccer final between Real Overs and Ackerville United played at the Lynnville Stadium on Monday, March 21.

From the onset, Emalahleni FM showed that they mean business and were well prepared for the match and taking advantage of the sloppy defence by the men of God.

Emalahleni scored their first goal after a few minutes from the start of the match after a breakthrough.

Then Buddy Mngun, the sports presenter scored from the corner-kick with a beautiful goal to make it 2-0.

A sole run by one of the Emalahleni FM presenters made it 3-0 and thereafter it was Emalahleni FM all the way.

They made it 4-0 before half-time.

Even though Uniting Forum tried very hard to press for another goal, it was never to be as the score remained 5-1 until the final whistle.
