Panorama puts in strong performance against Randburg
Seasoned SAB League side Randburg weren't able to claim the win against rookies Panorama.
Panorama Football Club managed to achieve an impressive draw against the seasoned SAB League team, Randburg Association Football Club, on Sunday 18 November.
The game was always going to be a tough one for both sides since they faced off a couple of months ago during the pre-season, in a thrilling game that ended 2–2. This time around, with Panorama still struggling to find their feet after a string of tough fixtures in the Blue Stream of the SAB League Johannesburg, Randburg was arguably favoured to take the win.
In typical Panorama spirit, however, the Undertakers refused to simply let Randburg walk over them on their home field. Pano drew first blood as they took the lead in the first half. The game went into the break at 1–0 to the home side, with the game firmly in the balance following dominant spells from both sides.
The second half followed in the footsteps of the first, as both teams enjoyed dominant spells of territory and possession. This eventually led to Randburg bringing the game back into balance with a goal of their own, placing the score at 1–1. The Undertakers were simply unable to capitalise on their chances and dominant spells in the second half, and the game ended at 1–1.
Panorama’s strong performance against their rivals undoubtedly puts them in good stead to put in a strong performance against Pimville Young Stars Football Club, their next fixture. Panorama and Pimville are scheduled to lock horns at Panorama FC on Saturday, 24 November at 3pm, so be sure to come out in support of your local SAB League side.
