Africa-Press – Eswatini. <\/strong><\/span>Manzini Wanderers rule the hub of Eswatini \u2013 and the boisterous club fans enjoyed every minute of it!<\/b><\/p>\n

A goal barely two minutes into the match by wing wizard Njabulo \u2018Koko\u2019 Gama and a penalty cooly converted by Mlaba Nkambule in the 20th minute ensured the maroon and white outfit claimed not only three points but also the Manzini City\u2019s bragging rights.<\/p>\n

Sunday\u2019s win also moved the \u2018Weslians\u2019 to the tenth spot just above Madlenya FC who are due to face title-chasing Young Buffaloes later in the afternoon.<\/p>\n

Manzini Wanderers won 2-0 against Moneni Pirates on Sunday at Mavuso Sports Centre<\/p>\n

Moneni Pirates, who had hogged headlines this week with the reported exit of South African director, Alinah Keibelwe amidst unpaid salaries, lost their second match in a row following the 3-0 loss to Mbabane Highlanders last weekend.<\/p>\n

Manzini Wanderers made their intentions as early as the second minute when winger Njabulo \u2018Koko\u2019 Gama finished off beautifully from inside the box, beating Pirates goalkeeper, Ncanawe Ndlandla hands down.<\/p>\n

While Pirates were still trying to re-group, Wanderers made it 2-0 when Mlaba Nkambule converted a penalty awarded by referee Leticia Viana following a foul on \u2018Koko\u2019 Gama by defender, Nkosinathi Shongwe.<\/p>\n

Fans enjoying the game.<\/p>\n

It was Mlaba\u2019s second goal in two games following his cracker free-kick against Tambankulu Callies which saved the \u2018Weslians\u2019 from the jaws of relegation.<\/p>\n
