​Soweto Derby Report: Kaizer Chiefs v Orlando Pirats 30 July 2016

Club Friendly

Result: Kaizer Chiefs 2-0 Orlando Pirates

Date: 30 July 2016

Venue: FNB Stadium

Goals from Erick Mathoho and Lewis Macha were enough to hand Kaizer Chiefs a 2-0 win over Soweto rivals, Orlando Pirates at the FNB Stadium.

Chiefs were in control from the onset and dominated the possession statistics, but they were unable to create a single chance in the opening 20 minutes.

Steve Komphela’s charges had the ball in the box after 30 minutes, but it was ruled out after Brighton Mhlongo had been fouled in the build-up.

Pirates, meanwhile, could not get their passing game going for the entire half, as the likes of Oupa Manyisa and Issa Sarr struggled to contain Chiefs’ midfield trio.

Chiefs had the first real opportunity in the 42nd minute when Benard Parker acrobatic effort sailed just wide of Mhlongo’s upright.

Neither coach would have been delighted with the first half showings, especially Komphela, having seen his side dominated the entire 45 minutes.

Five minutes into the second half, changes were made for both sides. Ramahlwe Mphahlele replaced Lorenzo Gordinho, while Luvuyo Memela replaced Issa Sarr.

Chiefs eventually took the lead in the 58th minute when Erick Mathoho tapped home from six-yards out, after Parker’s effort crashed off the crossbar.

Komphela’s charges nearly doubled their lead in the 65th minute, as Tsepo Masilela played a neat one-two with Parker, before striking the upright from close range.

New signings were given a run by both coaches, as Muhsin Ertugral introduced Gladwin Shitolo, Bernard Morrison and Riyaad Norodien after 70 minutes, while Sibusiso Khumalo made his first appearance in a Chiefs shirt.

Norodien certainly made his presence felt, as he carved out an opening in the 82nd minute when he picked out Morrison, whose effort was cleared off the line by Mathoho.

With Pirates pushing for an equaliser, Komphela introduced Daniel Cardoso for the final 10 minutes, while also giving new signing, Lewis Macha some game time.

However, Chiefs sealed the win in stoppage time, as Macha headed home at the near post to mark his debut with a goal.

Here’s how they lined up:

Kaizer Chiefs: 32. Khune, 18. Moleko, 26. Gordinho, 03. Mathoho, 24. Masilela, 27. Ekstein, 31. Katsande, 12. Maluleka, 17. Lebese, 25. Parker, 7. Twala

Orlando Pirates: 16. Mhlongo, 4. Jele, 2. Gcaba, 33. Gyimah, 8. Matlaba, 5. Makola, 18. Sarr, 20. Manyisa, 25. Rakhale, 31. Gabuza, 7.Ndoro

A Grade 12 learner in Namibia’s Ohagwena Region has invented a sim-less mobile phone that does not require airtime to make calls.

According to a New Era report, Simon Petrus, a pupil at Abraham Iyambo Senior Secondary School, created the phone using spares from a phone and television set.

Complete with a light bulb, fan and charger socket, the handset functions off power supplied through a radiator and is able to make calls to anywhere through the use of radio frequencies.

The invention, which is made up of a radio system, is attached to a box and also allows the user to view one TV channel on it.

No stranger to the world of creation, Petrus is reported to have won a gold medal at national level last year for his invention of a two-in-one machine that works as both a seed drier and cooler.

The shy learner has admitted to working on his invention for two years through money provided by his unemployed parents.

Petrus claims that he invented the phone in the hopes that it would be successful and be able to be carried further.

The development marks the latest in a series of innovative projects by students within the southern African nation.

Joshua Nghaamwa, a self-taught inventor, is reported to have created a satellite using parts from radios, cellphones and other electronics, The Namibian reports.

The satellite, believed to strengthen internet connectivity, is small enough to fit in a laptop bag and has a USB port that allows it to be connected to a modem, router or cellphone, increasing internet speed and allows for a better online experience.

Nghaamwa says he wants to introduce the device throughout the African market, so as to boost ICT on the continent.
