Germiston City Football Club took on Ayoba Aces in an away game at KwaThema Stadium last Saturday.<\/p>\n
The teams were playing in the SAFA Ekurhuleni SAB League.<\/p>
Ayoba Aces started off as the better of the two sides posing a frequent threat to the Germiston goal in the first 20 minutes, with the Germiston side looking a bit disorganised and not playing the flowing football that they have shown in the opening games of the season.<\/p>\n
Germiston started to come back into the game and started threatening the Aces goal.<\/p>
A well-played ball down the left flank saw the attack thwarted, but tenacity by Germiston saw them retrieve the ball and cross into the danger area where it was met with a scorching header to register Germiston\u2019s first goal 30 minutes into the first half.<\/p>\n
Germiston allowed Aces to come back at them and for the next 12 minutes they soaked up the pressure with rare skirmishes into the Aces’ half.<\/p>\n
Germiston held their lead into half-time.<\/p>\n
The second half started with Germiston attacking but a long clearance by Aces beat a standing Germiston defence leaving their goalkeeper exposed for the Aces striker to slot home the equaliser five minutes into the half.<\/p>\n
Just a few minutes later, Aces received a corner which they took short resulting in a well-placed low cross into the hand of a thankful keeper.<\/p>\n
