SOCCER
DHS 1st X1 beat KEARSNEY 1st X1 3-0
From the kick-off DHS attacked the Kearsney goal a number of times, but goalkeeper Samelo Shweni did well to save these numerous attempts. A DHS through ball forced the Kearsney goalkeeper to come out, but the ball was lobbed over him into the net.
Kearsney had a number of chances to score, but were unable to capitalise on their chances and went into the break a goal down.
The second half began with Kearsney dominating, but a DHS corner against the run of play resulted in a free ball which DHS kicked into the unguarded net.
With Kearsney putting everything into attack and leaving little defence, a counter attack from DHS resulted in another goal to make the final score 3-0.
