Africa-Press – Eswatini. <\/strong><\/span>Sihlangu………….. (1)2 Saviola 14th, Order 51st<\/b>
\nBotswana……….. (1)2 Talane 45+1, Setsile 75th pen<\/b>
\nSometimes in football you need luck to win games and after throwing everything at Botswana\u2019s Zebras, mother luck was not with Sihlangu.<\/b><\/p>\n

The nations pride crashed out of the CHAN qualifiersafter playing to a 2-all draw at the state-of-the-art Orlando Stadium. An unfortunate penalty conceded with 15 minutes remaining was the major let-down as once again, a chance to qualify for a first ever CAF major tournament went up in smoke. Sihlangu got off to a bright start, opening the scorers\u2019 chart a minute before the quarter hour mark through Sandile \u2018Saviola\u2019 Gamedze.<\/p>\n

Sabelo \u2018Sikhali\u2019 Ndzinisa, who was celebrating his 31st birthday on the day, picked a cleared Mzwandile Mabelesa ball, raced towards goal before threading a pass for \u2018Saviola\u2019. The MTN Premier League top goal scorer sent a dummy to the onrushing defender before placing the ball into the far corner with his weaker left foot.<\/p>\n

Concentration<\/b><\/p>\n

Just when it mattered the most in referee\u2019s added time in the opening half, lapses in concentration saw Sihlangu concede as Boakeditswe Talane tapped home from close range.<\/p>\n

Six minutes after resumption, Sihlangu restored their lead through Fanelo \u2018Order\u2019 Mamba, who cut in on the right hand side before unleashing a thunderbolt which beat goalkeeper Goitseone Phoko hands down. In the 75th minute, Peter Dlamini handled inside the big box and referee Keren Yocette pointed to the spot.<\/p>\n

Francis Setsile stepped up to send Sandanezwe Mathabela the wrong way to level matters for Botswana. For the fourth game in succession in a space of a month, Sihlangu has failed to get the better of Botswana, drawing three, an international friendly plus the back-to-back CHAN Qualifiers and losing one, the 2-0 defeat in the COSAFA Cup Plate semi-finals.<\/p>\n
