Germiston City FC’s first team played an away match, against Edenvale FC, on Saturday.<\/p>\n
Germiston City started this game well and, in the first minute, were attacking Edenvale.<\/p>
They were rewarded with a goal in the fourth minute, after a scuffle in the Edenvale box, with Zuma Maketso poking in the ball, off the Edenvale upright.<\/p>\n
Germiston continued their relentless attack, with Edenvale rarely getting out of their own half.<\/p>
Some good play down the left hand flank by Kaya Gertse beat off the Edenvale defenders and crossed into the path of Shakes Majepelo with a gaping Edenvale goal; it hit the post, a left off for Edenvale.<\/p>\n
Germiston continued to apply pressure, but were unable to capitalise on their good play by pressurising the Edenvale defence into mistakes.<\/p>\n
Edenvale’s defence ensured no more goals until half time, with the scoreboard being 1-0 in favour of Germiston at the end of the first half.<\/p>\n
In the second half, Germiston continued the pressure.<\/p>\n
A late tackle by Innocent Dhlamini saw his name go into the referee’s book, with Pizo Muso following shortly afterwards.<\/p>\n
Edenvale then went into their best spell of the game, pushing the Germiston defence to be on their best guard to keep the home side at bay.<\/p>\n
Edenvale’s threats, however, amounted to very little and, in the 29th minute, they forced a corner which was well dealt with by Brando Greyling in the Germiston goal, who had little to do the whole game.<\/p>\n
The game ended with a score of 2-0 to Germiston.<\/p>\n
This win elevates Germiston to third place in the Super League Two, with promotion to Super League One looking good.<\/p>\n
The Germiston second side went back to the top of the Reserve Super League Two, with a 2-0 victory over Edenvale.<\/p>\n
The Delville Sports Club will host the semi-finals of the Super League Cup on Saturday, August 23.<\/p>\n
With the Super League Cup and the Super League Reserve Cup taking place, there will be four games, with the first kick-off at 1.30pm.<\/p>\n
