As both teams were in the dressing rooms during the break a man sporting Bantu regalia was seen relieving himself in the goals Matlama were going to attack when the two teams returned for the second half.<\/p>\n<p>Immediately, a commotion ensued as Matlama fans who were sitting behind the goal booed and went onto the field to confront the man. The fan was whisked away by Bantu marshals but the drama lasted for about five minutes.<\/p>\n<p>While some Bantu fans dismissed it as mind games, it was clear Matlama were not impressed by the behaviour. However, whatever the fan hoped for did not work as Jane Thabant\u0161o scored a second goal to round off \u2018Tse Putsoa\u2019s perfect Sunday.<\/p>\n<p>On Monday, the Premier League Management Committee (PLMC) appealed to Bantu to take action against the individual and on Tuesday Bantu released an official statement condemning the bad behaviour of the supporter and the club also apologised to the league.<\/p>\n<p>The club said such actions tarnish the dignity of the club and football as a whole. \u201cThe management of the club hereby denounces (the) behaviour demonstrated by one of the fans on Matlama FC goalposts during halftime in the previous encounter,\u201d Bantu\u2019s statement read.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cSuch contemptuous actions tarnish the dignity of the club and football family as a whole.<\/p>\n<p>While disciplinary actions are imminent against whoever is responsible for this, the club wishes to humbly express its apology to LEFA (Lesotho Football Association), PLMC (Premier League Management Committee), Vodacom as the league sponsor, the club\u2019s sponsors, Matlama FC, supporters and other stakeholders affected by that irksome action,\u201d Bantu said.<\/p>\n<p>Bantu have refused to say what sort of punishment will be handed down on the individual, but the team insisted he is known to the club. Meanwhile, Bantu are preparing to face Sefothafotha today in a league match and are hoping to bounce back from Sunday\u2019s disappointment.<\/p>\n<p><strong>For More News And Analysis About <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/lesotho\">Lesotho<\/a> Follow <a href=\"https:\/\/www.africa-press.net\/\">Africa-Press<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Africa-Press &#8211; Lesotho.
