REHOBOTH, 19 MAY – Young Brazilians Football Club (FC) from Karasburg on Saturday defeated rookies Sport Klub Windhoek (SKW) 2-1 in the first round of the Southern Stream First Division Inland Stream league.
The match played at Karasburg Combined School Stadium started off at a slow pace with both teams pressing hard for an opener.
SKW mostly relied on aerial balls and the opener eventually came against the run of play in the 20th minute, when Lukie Claassen scored after intense pressure.
Minutes later SKW veteran defender Ivan Blom was cautioned for a mistimed tackle on an opposing player.
Young Brazilians then started to throw everything at SKW and equalized in the 40th minute through the boot of Reginald Vries to send the game level into halftime.
In the second half Young Brazilians found their rhythm and starting playing the ball on the ground with passing moves from player to player.
SKW were then reduced to ten men after Blom was showed a second yellow card.
Young Brazilians used the numerical advantage and pinned SKW into their half.
After intense pressing, the winner came via the boot of Revered Matroos in the 88th minute for a well-deserved three points for the home team.
Coach of Young Brazilians Tolla Julius on Saturday said SKW caused them problems with their aerial balls and did not make it easy for them.
“We could not deal with the long balls they played as our players are physically inferior to those of SKW. We decided to play our short passing game and rather draw fouls from it which eventually paid off,” Julius said.
SKW coach, Hans Dicka Danster, said the game was good, lamenting only that his players could not adopt to the gravel field.
“We had a good game, but could not implement our game plan due to my players not being used to playing on a gravel field. Well done to our opponents for giving us a good game. We will learn from our mistakes for the next games,” he remarked.
On Sunday, Young Brazilians will face Windhoek United in Round 2, with SKW facing Try Again FC in Keetmanshoop.
