It was around 12:00 and we kept his body in the house until 23:50, as his limbs had still not become stiff, like a normal dead body. We had hoped that he would wake up, but seeing that he was not coming back to life, we decided to take him to the mortuary, where his body was kept for two weeks. We were still hoping that he might wake up, as he had promised, but that did not happen,” she said. Ndamulelo was eventually buried on 26 March.

“What he told us before he died made us consult prophets and traditional healers. They made us believe that he is still

alive and that is why we exhumed his body [on 27 April]. When the grave was opened, there was no bad smell coming from it, like we expected from a dead body, and when we finally opened the casket, we were shocked to find not my son but a doll inside the casket. He has been made a zombie and we know who is responsible for this and we will not leave this matter lying. We will stop at nothing to see that he is brought back to life. We will soon have a big church ceremony, and we know he will come back alive,” Mathivha said.

This story has not only caused an uproar in the village but has become a popular discussion topic throughout the region.

Social media is abuzz about the incident, with staunch followers of African rituals backing the family in their belief that Ndamulelo was made a zombie.

person Maine Vho-Mashudu Tshikororo, one of Vhembe’s best known traditional surgeons, said they were more than ready to return to the mountains with the boys. “For two years, Covid-19 made it impossible for us to operate.

As humble messengers sent by the gods, who also abide by the laws of the country, we had to stop all operations and wait for the situation to normalise.

We were under strict rules to combat the spread of the pandemic and we could not risk people’s lives. Now that we have been given the green light, and bearing in mind that the situation has tremendously improved, we are very excited to go back to our craft, given by our ancestors. We can now tell our communities that we are more than ready. We thank our government for once more giving us the opportunity to do what we love most. We will still follow the rules as set down by government,” he said.

Tshikororo said that parents were welcome to view the sites where the schools conducted their practices to be sure that things were run smoothly.

He added that a workshop had already been held in the Vhembe District. Vaccination stations will be set up near the initiation schools for those who have not been vaccinated yet.

“We promise to give our utmost care while the boys are under our care. Parents should have peace of mind while the boys are away,” he said.

Prior to the Covid-19 outbreak, Limpopo was identified as the province with the fewest fatalities during cultural circumcisions.

“Our son was turned into a zombie” (From page 1) However, some community members who were present when the grave was dug up have a different story to tell.

Limpopo Mirror visited the family and the gravesite where Ndamulelo was buried on Tuesday. The grave had clearly been tampered with recently as traces of fresh soil could be seen.

Munna Ndi Nnyi Men’s Forum chairperson Mr Bardwell Mufunwaini, who initially dealt with the case and also went to the grave, said he doubted the family’s version very much. “When a person is buried, it undergoes many changes. The family cannot expect to find him the same as he was before he was buried.

They confirmed that they saw the body before burial and the elder brother confirmed there was a bad smell upon opening the coffin. I doubt very much that a doll could smell bad,” he said.

Community leader Mr Takalani Ramanugu of the Gelebe Royal Council said they had deliberated on the issue with the family, and that he was among those who had gone to graveyard to witness the exhumation. He said they had agreed to meet at the deceased’s family’s house to ascertain that permission had been granted by the court to exhume the body.

“On arrival at the house, they were long gone with their traditional healer. We found them at the graveyard, nearly done with the digging.

It seems they wanted to do everything in our absence, and we suspect a sinister agenda.

The situation was very bad as we had to close our noses because of the bad stench.

The body was in a state of advanced decomposition. The family must just accept that the man has passed on and learn to live with it, but they

Man killed over missing cellphone

By Elmon Tshikhudo Community members from Muraga village, outside Thohoyandou, were left in disbelief after a resident was allegedly killed over a cellphone.

On Sunday, 24 April, Thakhani Mauda was stabbed to death after a man, seemingly convinced that Mauda had stolen his phone, arrived at his home. Mauda’s father was with him at the time. A fight about the alleged stolen phone apparently ensued between the two quarrelling men, ending in Mauda lying seriously injured and bleeding with severe stab wounds to his back and leg. The family took him to the Malavuwe clinic for treatment, but he later succumbed to his injuries.

The first to express his shock over the incident was the local traditional leader, Chief Ntikedzeni Muraga. “On hearing about the incident, I rushed to Mauda’s home, only to find that he had already been taken to the clinic. On arrival at the clinic, we found him still bleeding, and then he died right before our eyes. This is a very traumatic time for us. Watching him die will linger with us for a long time. As the traditional leadership, we are truly saddened by this incident.

We send our deepest condolences to the family and condemn this act in the strongest terms.

We cannot allow lawlessness in our community under our watch,” he said.

Limpopo police spokesperson Col Malesela Ledwaba confirmed the incident and said a murder case had been opened. “We have since launched a manhunt for the suspect, Ntshavheni Ndou,” he said. Anyone who might be able to assist the police with information can contact Detective Sergeant Maanda Sumbana at Tel 072 267 7346 / 067 246 3834, or the Crime Stop number 08600 10111 or MySAPS App, or they can go to their nearest police station.

are in denial. We are not stopping them from pursuing the matter, but we are no longer involved,” he said.

Well-known traditional healer Maine VhoTshivhonammbi Netshivhambe advised the family to spare themselves financially as no one will be able to raise their son from the dead. “The raising of the dead ended in biblical times during the time of Jesus, and we know of no other instance after that,” she said.

News with an independent soul

Several outstanding learners from Tshivhazwaulu Primary School received trophies and certificates in recognition of their achievements in academics and sports activities during an awards function held at the school on 22 April.

The chairperson of the school’s SGB, Mr Andani Matumba, said that for the school to present such a day to celebrate the achievements of the first quarterly examinations was important. “Our learners are failing and not because they do not know what they are writing about, but because they are not prepared for the examinations.”

Matumba said learners had to make informed decisions if they dreamt of being successful in life, and that this decision lay with each individual learner. “You either choose to make it or fail in life, but whatever unwise decision you make will come back to haunt you later in life.” He encouraged the children to pray for whatever they wanted in life and to use their time profitably.

“There is time for everything; allocate more time to your schoolwork and you will get the best results at the end of the year,” he said.

The guest speaker and managing director of Emmanuel Funerals, Mr Musiwalo Sigidi, told the pupils how he and others like him had defeated the odds to become successful in life.

He told them that they, too, could succeed if they worked hard, planned, and stayed focused. The “role models” included engineers, businessmen and medical doctors from rural villages around the area, and all had a similar story to tell: “One can succeed despite one’s background.” He encouraged the pupils to take education seriously, so that they could face the challenges of the future with ease. He said the parents must cooperate with the Department of Education and other stakeholders for the benefit of education in the country.

The principal of the school, Mr Humbulani Mudau, said that the function was aimed at promoting dedication and faithfulness. “Parents should check their children’s schoolwork frequently, so that they are able to contribute to their performance in the classroom,” he said.

He appealed to pupils who are struggling not to give up. “Don’t waste time in making excuses.

An unnecessary excuse will not make you an achiever. Pupils and teachers had to sweat it out to reap the rewards at the end of the year.

Failure does not necessarily mean that one has to stop pursuing your dreams. Failure gives you the opportunity to realise your mistakes and start afresh to rectify what you couldn’t achieve at first. We need to stress the importance of education because it is the backbone of prosperity and knowledge.”

were giving up on engaging the municipality regarding service delivery. They just wanted to show the municipality that even though they did not get what had been promised to them, there were certain things that they, as a community, were able to do for themselves. “We are challenging our municipality, saying that we are entitled to service delivery, like any other community. We should not be side-lined as if we are foreigners. We will not stop engaging them and we will keep on raising these issues whenever there are integrated development plan (IDP) meetings,” he said.

When Limpopo Mirror contacted the ward councillor, Kanukani Maphubu, about this issue, he said that he had met with the Makhado Park community on Sunday, 1 May, where he had explained the municipality’s strategy to the residents. According to Maphubu, the municipality already has plans to rehabilitate streets and to debush long grass. They also have monthly pothole-repair programmes.

Maphubu could not, however, say when the municipality intended to start with these projects.

Friends and relatives of businesswoman Ms Rendani Lillian Raphunga (standing second from right, holding a cake) travelled from as far as Soweto in Gauteng, where she grew up, and other parts of the country to spend a colourful day in celebrating her 52nd birthday.

MEC Lerule-Ramakhanya said that parents must, from their side, also see to their children’s safety by ensuring that the children were transported to school by registered drivers with complying vehicles.

She said that law enforcement would be tightened in all the identified areas to ensure the safety of learners who relied on public transport or arranged transportation to schools.

“It is regrettable that we had to wake up to the horrific accident involving these learners from the Mutale area. We are grateful that there were no fatalities reported, but I want to emphasize that all those who are transporting learners must register with the department.

Freedom Day was celebrated last Wednesday (27 April), but many people feel that life has not changed for the better at all for them since the country’s first democratic elections took place in 1994. Mr Zwifarwi Edward Nethengwe from Mulodi village, in the Thulamela Municipality, has been standing in line for an RDP house for 21 years now. Nethengwe claims that, in 2000, the housing department built him a zinc shack with the promise to return soon to build him an RDP house, but to this day he is still waiting. Patrick Nemulodi from the royal family said that they were aware of Nethengwe’s situation. “There are a lot of residents in need of RDP houses and we have had to prioritise, focusing first on those with families, but the next time we are allocating RDP houses we are sure to include him on the list,” Nemulodi said. In the photo, Nethengwe stands in front of his zinc shack. Photo supplied.

She was clearly dead. “I suspect that my sister was murdered because the bite mark on her hand looked like a sign left by the killers. The chain that was used to lock the front gate was found under the table and a [panga] was found next to the TV in the living room. Her two cellphones and an undisclosed amount of money were missing,” he said.

After consulting some of the family members, he called the local Mutale police, and an inquest docket was initially opened. “I nearly fainted when I discovered that my sister was dead. I had last spoken to her just the previous night, hoping to see her at church the next day. I felt deep pain because she was defenceless against whoever it was that killed her, as she was disabled,” Tshilidzi said. He said that the Nduvheni family suspected that her murder was motivated by the fact that she had collected money from the vetkoek stokvel, called tshitokofela tsha zwikonsi, earlier on the day of the incident, and that the killers had had their eye on those funds.

“My sister was still chanting and sharing Bible verses with her friends at midnight on that night, little knowing that it was to be her last day on the earth.”

Limpopo police spokesperson Lieutenant Colonel Mamphaswa Seabi confirmed the incident and said that the deceased had been taken to the Tshilidzini Hospital for a post-mortem. When the post-mortem indicated that the deceased had been killed, the inquest case was amended. The police are now investigating a case of murder. No one has been arrested yet.

Art & Entertainment Rabonda makes an entrance in the gospel industry Gospel-music sensation Ronewa Rabonda has finally released his much-awaited debut single, called Dzithendo ndi dza vho.

Photo supplied.

Entertainment To the delight of gospel-music lovers, Ronewa Rabonda finally released his much-anticipated debut single, Dzithendo ndi dza vho, on Monday, 2 May 2022.

Rabonda, who hails from Tshiulungoma village near Thohoyandou, promises that this is only the beginning of much greater things to come from his career in the gospel-music industry.

Although this is his first song to be released, Rabonda is not a novice in gospel-music circles.

He had in the past worked and shared a stage with seasoned gospel music artists such as Palesa Ravele, Taki Sikhwivhilu

and Shandukani Changes, to name but a few, so many fans remember his name well. “My peers will remember me as the small boy with the golden voice who used to lead morning devotions in hymns at Tshiulungoma Primary School.

I continued to do the same when I went on to high school at Azwifarwi and Mukhwantheli. I still enjoy leading the singing at the Living World Gospel Mission church, where I am a staunch member. In fact, the world changes form when I am behind the microphone.”

Dzithendo ndi dza vho was supposed to have been released some time ago already, but everything was delayed because of the outbreak of the coronavirus. “I had to stop working on the song several times because of the travel restrictions and strict Covid-19

regulations. There was no need for me to rush, though, because I know that God’s time is the best. I prayed and asked God to provide me with the perfect time to release the song, and my prayers have finally been answered. I serve a living God who never disappoints. The most important thing is to be patient and just trust Him.” The track was recorded, arranged, mastered and produced by Hulani Tshamaano at H Recording Studios in Maniini, near Thohoyandou, and is available in all online digital stores.

For public performances, music sales and bookings, Rabonda is available on 079 741 0576 (voice calls and WhatsApp), Facebook (Rabonda Ronewa), Instagram (Rabonda Ronewa), and YouTube (Rabonda Ronewa).

Mukumela knows how to juggle his diverse careers Entertainment Maanda Stanley Singo Mukumela’s fans become all excited when they see him on their television sets, but a whole other side to their favourite drama actor exists as well. In real life, Mukumela, who hails from Ngwenani ya Ha-Mapholi village outside Thoho­ yandou, is also a dedicated police officer and worker’s union representative.

To fulfil such diverse roles in everyday life takes a special kind of devotion – and extremely careful time-management skills – but Mukumela reckons he has what is required.

The actor side of him features in various popular television dramas, such as Muvhango (SABC 2), Gomora (Mzansi Magic), Queen Sono (Showmax) and Diep City (Mzansi Magic).

His character in Diep City,

which is currently airing on television, portrays the role of a man called Power Guerilla, an inmate who terrorises the other prisoners, including the main character, Mgendeza.

In Muvhango, his role was that of a male nurse who was secretly in love with Vhangani’s wife. His role in Queen Sono was that of a soldier, while in Gomora he featured as a criminal, stealing cars in scrapyards.

Mukumela describes his acting career as “an accident”, as he had never had any prior acting experience. “In 2018, one of my friends told me that Muvhango needed someone well-built and muscular to take on a role. So I went for the auditions and the team was impressed with my body shape, and I was immediately roped in.”

While he acted in Muvhango, he joined a Johannesburg-based casting agency, called Pro Heed Agency,

who refined his acting skills and secured him the roles in Gomora, Queen Sono and Diep City.

He has a lot of appreciation for the agency. “My sincere gratitude goes to Sedzani Stanley Sigebe, the founder and director of Pro Heed Agency, who recognised my talent and nurtured me to become one of the best in this industry. I never thought that I would one day become a famous face on television.”

Asked how he successfully shuffled between his roles as a police officer, actor and worker’s union representative, Mukumela was quick to respond: “The most important thing is to manage your time effectively. Another thing is to stay dedicated in everything I do. I always consider myself as a novice because I believe that we keep learning new things every day.”

Manenje joins the breakfast show’s team Phalaphala FM is thrilled to welcome South African actress and broadcaster Vele Manenje to the station to co-present their breakfast show, Vhandilani, with Terry “The Big Dude” Mudau from 06:00 until 09:00, Mondays to Fridays.

Manenje comes from the royal family of the Manenzhe clan. This witty and intelligent young woman has acted in the theatre and has extensive experience in the film and television industry. She plays the role of Seani in the SABC 2 soap opera, Muvhango. Her ability to immerse herself into every role that she is given and fully execute a wholesome character that not only captivates audiences but totally encapsulates them is absolutely remarkable.

Not only is she a seasoned actress, but she could easily become a stand-up comedian as she often leaves her peers in stitches.

Over the years, she has displayed dedication, commitment and self-discipline towards her craft. This definitely sets her apart from the rest. Having a deep understanding and broad sense of creativity, she speaks six out of the 11 official South African languages. She often lends her writing skills to behind-the-scenes work, translating scripts for various production companies. Her versatility has enabled her to meander in and out of multiple characters and jobs, achieving nothing short of excellence.

Manenje says she sees herself as a self-motivated and naturally hardworking person who can adapt to change. “For me, radio means opportunities and bridging the gap between our people and the world. Radio inspires and instils hope. With radio, we learn the difference between right and wrong. Radio has given me an opportunity to do something in the community,” she said.

What she loves most about her job at the radio is that it enables her to serve the public well, disseminate information and shape the public perception on key people, places, things, and events. She says she feels humbled to be a part of the station’s formidable team of committed and dedicated presenters.

Phalaphala FM’s programme manager, Sharon Ravele, conveyed her hearty welcome.

“It is exciting and refreshing to have Manenje join Phalaphala FM’s team of vibrant presenters who, at all times, strive to inform, educate and entertain their loyal listeners. Manenje will indeed be an asset to the station. Her vast experience in the entertainment industry is only the cherry on top for the listeners,” she said.

“Please patch up the ring road again,” plead Tshakhuma residents

By Bernard Chiguvare Tshakhuma residents are highly dissatisfied about the state of the ring road, which had been repaired only last year.

The Tshakhuma ring road starts at the Tshakhuma Fruit Market along the R524, cutting through the Tshakhuma Tribal Office and passing Mavhungu Andries Secondary School, on

to a small fruit market in Mulangaphuma village, and back to the R524.

In 2021, Makhado Municipality appointed two contractors to patch up the potholed road, but only two weeks after the road maintenance had been completed, the residents say, the potholes started to reappear again, making the using of the road very difficult for motorists.

“We are appealing to the

Makhado Municipality to attend to the ring road as a matter of urgency, as it is affecting the community,” said Joel Mulaudzi, secretary of the Tshakhuma South African National Civic Organization (SANCO).

“We believe substandard work was done and possibly the contractor was not a professional on road maintenance.

It is important for the municipality to award contracts to professionals, as this will warrant good jobs,” he said.

Mulaudzi further suggested that the municipality check on the quality of work that is being done on a regular basis, before they release the contractors.

Realising that the ring road is posing a danger to the community, residents escalated the matter to Makhado Ward 28 and 29 councillors, but apparently, they have not received any feedback from them yet.

“We need to know when the municipality is going to attend to our road. We have not been informed about any plan to repair the road since November last year,” said Mulaudzi.

A media enquiry was sent to the Makhado Municipality on 28 April, but at the time of our going to press, no feedback had been received on the matter.

The spokesperson for the municipality, Mr Louis Bobodi, said he was still waiting for a response from the relevant departments.

refurbishment. At the same time, we want to again warn our communities against illegal water connections so that, should the district hear our plea, this problem (of illegal water connections) should not prevent us from getting clean water from the taps,” Bilankulu said.

Cllr Tshifhango acknowledged that water was a serious challenge for the communities under the Mtititi Tribal Authority and that the time had come for more action and less talking to address the problem once and for all. “The VDM is going to establish a so-called Water Committee, which will help us to solve water challenges, and the Mtititi communities will also benefit from this. Our responsibility, as the Water Services Authority, is to deliver water services to our communities and nothing else. Our main challenge, however, is the illegal connection of water, which is reported [to be] rife in many parts of the country. We urge those who are guilty of this practice to stop it immediately,” said Tshifhango.

Muslim community celebrate Eid Religion On Tuesday, members of the local Muslim community celebrated Eid-al-Fitr, which marks the end of the month-long dawn-to-sunset fasting of Ramadan. This year, the celebrations started on a slightly different note, as non-Muslim members of the community were also invited to join the festivities and watch the sighting of the moon on Monday night at the Masjid Al Noor mosque.

Ahmed Hasturk, the local Director of the Universal Islamic Cultural Trust (UICT), explained that the UICT had started a few new traditions in an effort to bring communities together. One of these was to invite families to bring a picnic basket and enjoy the sighting of the new moon with them.

It also gave an opportunity to Muslim families to break their fasting period while relaxing in the gardens at the mosque.

Members of the Muslim community celebrated Ramadan the past month, which includes a fasting period from dawn to sunset. During Ramadan, a lot of emphasis is placed

on charitable work in the community. “During the fasting period, we gathered together every Sunday at the Masjid Al Noor gardens to cook food and distribute these to more than 200 families, which included Muslim and non-Muslims families,” said Hasturk. The UICT also runs an Islamic pre-school facility at the mosque, which is the only one of its kind in town.

“We provided iftar (dinner) for all the parents of the children at the school one night as part of the Ramadan activities,” Hasturk said.

The UICT is an internationally registered non-profit organisation that, among their activities, also provides boarding schools for less-privileged children.

Monday’s sighting of the moon introduced the new month, which means that the Eid celebrations could commence. “The tradition of bringing the community together is a big one in Cape Town and the UICT hopes to make this an annual gathering,” Hasturk added.

Defenders hold Mabaleng to a draw

By Kaizer Nengovhela Gogobole Home Defenders and the current log leaders in the Makhado Local Football League, Hollywood Bets Mabaleng, played to a goalless draw in their match played at Gogobole on Saturday.

Defenders were lucky not to concede an avalanche of goals during the first half.

Mabaleng displayed entertaining football, with Defenders running for cover. Mabaleng threatened to score in the seventh minute. Their striker, Phindulo Mabasa, caught the

Defenders’ keeper off-guard but shot wide.

Although one of their key midfielders, Phungela Ndadza, was reprimanded with a card in the 35th minute, Defenders did not lose their fighting spirit. They continued to pressure their opponents by creating promising moves from the centre of the pitch.

Dakalo Ramabulana, Mabaleng’s playmaker, did not lose his original fighting spirit, despite the fact that he received a warning in the 40th minute. Ramabulana tackled Hulisani Ramavhale of Defenders from behind and was

reprimanded with a card.

Mabaleng realized that finding the net would be difficult if they continued volleying from behind and then started to cool the ball down in the middle of the park.

The second half started at a snail’s pace, with both teams struggling to penetrate each other’s defence. Defenders pressed hard in their search for a goal. Mabaleng gained momentum as the game progressed. In the 66th minute, their lethal striker, Adolf Fhetani, missed a fortune. He shot wide with the keeper well beaten.

Spurs at the Thohoyandou Stadium last Sunday. On the other hand, VFA donated significant league points to their opponents in their last two matches.

VFA will pin their hopes on Rophney Hlongwane, Rotondwa “Neymar” Mutsivhuli and Tau Rankoko for goals. On the other hand, the defenders of VFA must keep an eye on Leopards’ goal poachers, Matimu Tshabalala, Ivan Mahangwahaya and Noko Malekana, or else they will not know what has eaten them at the end of the game.

Tshakhuma Tsha Madzivhandila will host Uthongathi FC at the Old Peter Mokaba Stadium in Polokwane. Cape Town Spurs will play University of Pretoria FC at the Parow Park Stadium outside Cape Town. Free State Stars will lock horns with Polokwane City at the Goble Park Stadium in Bethlehem, Free State. The other fixtures are Hungry Lions vs Cape Town All Stars, Jomo Cosmos vs Platinum City Rovers and JDR Stars vs Pretoria Callies.

their first experience of such a play-off. Asked about their level of readiness for the big test, the manager of Defenders, Mr Sidwell Phuravhathu, said that they were leaving no stone unturned in their preparations.

He said that the team was ready for the promotional playoff match and his boys were looking forward to the event.

Phuravhathu reckoned the fact that they had managed to finish their league programme two months before the promotional play-offs counted in their favour as they had had enough time to prepare for the big event. He appealed to the local football lovers to rally behind the team during the match.

Lacoste shine brightly over Rodadau

By Frank Mavhungu Lacoste Morning Stars registered their second victory in a row when they beat Rodadau FC 2-0 in their Sasol Women’s League match that was played at the Tshitungulwane Muziafera Grounds on Saturday.

Rodadau could have sealed the game within the first 20 minutes, but their strikers were unlucky at the goal finish. Realising that they had nothing to fear, the visitors from Shayandima started to play attacking football towards the end of the first half. At that stage, the home side were just running around like headless chickens.

They were severely punished

for that.

Morning Stars were awarded a corner kick in the 38th minute. Nompilo Nkuna scored with a neat header, following a corner kick that was taken by Felicia Rikhotso.

The captain of Rodadau, Sbongile Sebetha, was reprimanded with a card in the 44th minute following a continued argument with the referee.

Morning Stars enjoyed the 1-0 lead until the proceedings for the first half came to an end.

Morning Stars strengthened their striking force by introducing Tshedza Mulaudzi and Lufuno Tshivhase, who replaced Nsovo Mkansi and Livhuwani Mukwevho respectively, early in the last stanza. The home side started to display their rough

Londani Negota and Moleboheng Tsweleng were booked for dangerous play and a late tackle in the 67th and 70th minute respectively.

Morning Stars increased the lead in the 78th minute.

Mususumeli Mankga beat the offside trap and sent the keeper the wrong way with a ground cutter.

The officials and fans of Rodadau confronted the referee in anger shortly after the final whistle, accusing her of favouritism. They were stopped by the officials and fans of Morning Stars before they could manhandle her.

scoreboard was still blank at the end of the first half, despite numerous attempts by the visitors.

TTM solidified the team’s striking force by introducing Naeem Amojee, who replaced Lebohang Mlangeni.

The goal that secured Gallants a place in the final came in the 64th minute. Thato Khiba beat the keeper with a half volley. TTM tried their luck by effecting two more changes five minutes thereafter.

That did not change the complexion of the game as Gallants continued to enjoy ball possession.

Miguel Timm of Gallants was the Man of the Match. He was presented with a trophy and R5 000 after the game.

Black Leopards continued to deposit more vital points into their league account when they crushed Cape Town Spurs 2-1 in their GladAfrica Championship League match played at the Thohoyandou Stadium on Sunday.

Lidoda duvha took the game to the visitors from the first whistle. Realising that for them to contain the home side was not going to be easy, the defenders of Spurs started to demonstrate their rough skills in a bid to frustrate their opponents.

The referee, Mr Eugene Mdluli, did not allow any of the culprits to go unpunished. He flashed two yellow cards within a short space of time.

Abednigo Mosiathaga was the first player to be reprimanded with a card. He was lucky not to see red after tackling Tshepo Matsimbi from behind. Their Brazilian striker, Jairo Da Silva, was also booked in the 14th minute. His sin was an ugly tackle on Matimu Tshabalala.

The Thohoyandou side took the lead three minutes towards the end

of the first half. Their slender striker, Ivan Mahangwahaya, was brought down within the box and the referee was quick to point at the white spot. The team’s top goal scorer, Tiklas Thutlwa, made no mistake from the penalty spot.

Leopards effected the first change to their starting 11 four minutes into the last half.

They brought in Mumuni Abubakar and sacrificed Ivan Mahangwahaya.

The visitors found the equaliser in the 68th minute.

Moroole was brought down within the box - a clear penalty for Spurs. Eyona Ndondo beat the Leopards keeper, Rotshidzwa Muleka, with a half volley. Leopards effected two more changes shortly after Spurs’ goal. They introduced Maboke Matlakala and Maphuthi Leso at the expense of Donald Makgethwa and Nono Malekana respectively.

Tsheamo Mashoene was the only Leopards player who was warned with a card. He tackled Chumani Butsaka from behind just outside the box.

Leopards reclaimed the lead during the referee’s optional time. The team’s captain, Isaac Masia, headed home after a free kick that was taken
