Kabelo Mahlasela’s second half goal took Royal AM to the last 8 of the Nedbank Cup, the attacking midfielder’s solitary goal at the Dobsonville Stadium on Friday night helping the Durban side to beat Swallows FC for the second time within a week
Royal AM coach John Maduka had the last laugh again when his side beat Swallows FC 1-0 in the Nedbank Cup last 16 match at the Dobsonville Stadium in Soweto on Friday.Kabelo Mahlasela’s second half goal took Royal AM to the last 8 of the Nedbank Cup, the attacking midfielder’s solitary goal at the Dobsonville Stadium on Friday night helping the Durban side to beat Swallows FC for the second time within a week.
This was one of the poor cup matches where neither side produced a shot at goal for close to 40 minutes of the first half, where there was a lot of huffing and puffing with no side having a clear direction towards goals. The first 45 minutes' stats showed that the visitors, Royal, had two tame shots on target out of their five attempts while Swallows had no shot that had to be saved by Royal goalkeeper Patrick Nyame in two chances they created.
Swallows fluffed a glorious opportunity to take the lead in the 56th minute when they earned the penalty after Jabulani Ncobeni handled Monnapule Saleng’s cross inside the area. The Birds skipper Lebohang Mokoena stepped up but took a very tame kick that Nyame easily saved to keep the scoreline at 0-0.
