Gunners have themselves to blame as they were too casual in the first half, defending deep and giving Rollers an upper hand as they kept on pressing high.<\/p>\n<p>Rollers efforts were rewarded when Ngele unleashed a powerful shot just outside the area in the 32nd minute, which deflected off a Gunners defender, and extended the lead midway through the first half. Boy also found himself unmarked on the 45th minute and easily converted.<\/p>\n<p>After the break, the hosts came out determined and dictated terms with good carpet football, and they eventually scored through Ogomoditswe Sitang in the 60th minute. The goal gave Gunners a ray of hope that they could come back into the game, but they failed to punish Rollers who were at the time on panic mode.<\/p>\n<p>However, it was not to be as Leballo put the last nail on Gunners\u2019 coffin with a powerful volley outside the area in stoppage time to ensure his team collected maximum points.<\/p>\n<p>The result now means that out of the six games the two teams have played in the recent past, Rollers have won five and the other one ended in a draw. Though Segolame Boy is not an outright striker, he has managed to score in all the games between the two teams since he joined Rollers.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Botswana<\/span> Follow <span style=\"color: #ff6600\">Africa-Press<\/span><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Botswana.
