Germiston City Football Club travelled to Prince George\u2019s Park, in Boksburg, last Saturday to face Boksburg Football Club in their latest Eastern Local Football Association (ELFA) Super League fixture.<\/p>\n
The club\u2019s first team, desperate for a Super League win, and five players short had to draw players from the reserve side to fill their team for the clash.<\/p>
Germiston, seemingly the stronger of the two sides, were the first to put a point on the scoreboard with an early goal from Eddy Mokotedi.<\/p>\n
However, the club seemed to fall back into their old patterns of behaviour squandering two chances at goal.<\/p>
\u201cStriker Anthony Uzochukwu definitely did not seem to have his shooting boots on,\u201d said club chairperson Peter Oliver.<\/p>\n
Germiston allowed the hope of winning to slip even further with some poor defending, which led to two rapid succession goals from Boksburg.<\/p>\n
The club seemed to bounce back seconds before half-time, with Mokotedi scoring his second goal of the match.<\/p>\n
Leaving the teams tied at 2-2 heading into the break.<\/p>\n
During the half-time break coach Sreten Pavlovic did not mince his words and urged the team to step up and play their own style of football and not to let the opposition dictate the flow of play.<\/p>\n
