Luso Africa FC\u2019s second and first sides played against Benoni Northerns FC, on Saturday, at Hattingh Park, in Primrose East.<\/p>\n

The second team\u2019s match was a Super League Reserves fixture, while the first teams was a Super League match.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

Luso\u2019s first team joined the audience in cheering on the second team as they waited their turn.<\/p>\n

The first half saw a dominant Luso side which was later rewarded by a fine goal from Brandon Hendricks.<\/p>

Fair-play gave way until half-time.<\/p>\n

Luso was missing in the second half and Northerns took full advantage of that and landed a bended shot which defeated Luso\u2019s goalkeeper, Dillan Ribeiro.<\/p>\n

In what seemed like two minutes after their first goal, Northerns put a second one into the net.<\/p>\n

With a 2-1 score in favour of Northerns, Luso reverted back to a full-on defence formation, with very little attack.<\/p>\n

Though Luso\u2019s robust defence ensured no more goals from Northerns, it also led to them not scoring any more goals.<\/p>\n

A few attempts were witnessed from Luso but none were successful.<\/p>\n

Luso\u2019s second team lost 2-1 to Benoni Northerns FC.<\/p>\n

Another greatly anticipated fixture was that of the first teams.<\/p>\n

Luso\u2019s side dominated from the beginning right through a penalty shot within minutes of start of the first half.<\/p>\n

Just before half-time, another goal was scored by Luso.<\/p>\n

Luso secured their 2-0 lead until the end of the match.<\/p>\n
