The Germiston City Sports Club played host to senior football action on Saturday.<\/p>\n

The fixture was between Germiston City Football Club\u2019s senior third division team and Kempton Park FC.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

The senior players had a chance to show the young supporters how it is done, all while trying to better their positions on the ELFA league log.<\/p>\n

Both teams used most of the first half to analyse each other\u2019s style of playing before launching their game plan respectively.<\/p>

<\/div>\n

Slow-paced football was a testament of the analysis but the tables turned as City dominated ball possession and increased their shots on target.<\/p>\n

Although there were a few close goal attempts from both sides, the game went into half-time with no goals scored.<\/p>\n

It seems Kempton went back to the drawing board during half-time as they punished the comfortable City team by scoring a goal within minutes of the second half.<\/p>\n

The goal called for some serious action as City beefed up their defense while their opponents played to extend their lead.<\/p>\n

City\u2019s attackers managed to score an equaliser minutes after Kempton.<\/p>\n

Fair-play gave way before Kempton scored another goal, extending their lead and they made sure they secured it until the end of the match.<\/p>\n

The final score was 2-1 to Kempton.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe first and second teams played away games against Randburg FC on Saturday,\u201d said the communications officer for the Germiston City Football Club, Pieter Oliver.<\/p>\n

\u201cUnfortunately, the first team lost 3-1 and the second team lost 5-0.<\/p>\n

\u201cRandburg is a tough team to play against and they are currently second on the league, but well done to all the teams they put out their best.\u201d<\/p>\n
