Klerksdorp-Ma-Indies is through to the final after a hard fought 2-1 win over favourites Bloemfontein Celtic in the first Sasol League National Championship semi-final played at Matlosana Stadium in North West province.

The two teams went to the break deadlocked at 0-0 despite frantic efforts to open the encounter.

The battle continued into the second half and Ma-Indies were first to get onto the score sheet when they were awarded a penalty 10 minutes into the second half. Banyana Banyana goal-getter Noko Matlou made no mistake from the spot to make it 1-0.

The goal galvanized Celtic Ladies came back into action but were denied the equaliser on several occasions. They duly equalised when they were awarded their own penalty which was converted by Leah Sethunya.

But Ma-Indies had the last laugh though when Maite Magoro caught the Celtic defence napping to slip through a clean goal which proved decisive.-TDN
