Leopards showed the necessary fight of a last-placed team, and had the better movement and some good scoring chances.
Wits boxed clever against a Leopards bent on attack, and whose attractive football belied their bottom placing. In the end a clever tactical showing and Terence Dzvukamanja’s 45th-minute headed winner made the difference.
Early on Thabang Monare’s corner found big Bienvenu Eva Nga to get up and head onto the top netting for the home side. With Leopards seemingly edging an advantage, Wits scored. From Deon Hotto’s cross swung in from the right edge of the box Zimbabwean forward Dzvukamanja’s hang time getting up to an expert header placed past keeper Rotshidzwa Muleka was impressive.They were always in danger of being exposed by that, too, as Hotto’s turn to lose his marker in midfield set up former Portugal-based winger Kgaogelo Sekgota for a strike inches past the post.
