THREE-LING MAMBA BACK ON TOP

MBABANE – Green Mamba are back on top of the MTN Premier  League  charts after defeating Manzini Sea Birds 3-1 in a game played at KaLanga Technical Centre yesterday.

They dislodged army side Young Buffaloes who had claimed the seat on Saturday, after edging Moneni Pirates 2-1 in the week 16 fixtures, played over the weekend. The two are separated by a single point as the tittle race heats up, with the capital city giants being Highlanders and Swallows still in the picture.

According to reports from KaLanga, the Correctional side scored in each half to give the visitors a rude welcome as they shared the spoils during the first round clash. The Ernest Mavuso-led side scored through the boot of Njabulo Tfwala in the 23rd  minute, with Njabulo Magagula also on target  a minute after the restart of the match.
Their final goal came three minutes after the second through experienced  winger Mthunzi ‘Xavi’ Mkhontfo.

Meanwhile, Sea Birds pulled one back at the 51st minute through Siphelele Dladla. Sea Birds remained eighth  on the log standings after the game. They will be out to redeem  themselves Denver Sundowns in the next fixture.
Green Mamba will face relegation-threatened Manzini Wanderers  in effort to consolidate their top spot.
