10 September 2018 – After a nail-biting season last year, the 2018/19 edition of the ABC Motsepe League season officially kicked off this past weekend with some eye-catching results which indicate a great season ahead.
Harmony FC kicked off the season with a tough outing against Knowledge Glen FC whom they edged 1-0 to secure their first victory while Dla2 FC went down 2-1 at home to Lijabatho FC in a simultaneous fixture.
League favourites Mangaung Unite shot straight to the top after their 2-0 win over Dikwena United FC to set the pace for the season.
A four-goal thriller between Days FC and Mphatlatsane resulted in a 2-2 draw as both sides shared the spoils in an evenly balanced affair. Another stalemate occurred in Bloemfontein when Small Tigers held Bloemfontein Celtic to a 1-1 draw.
Just like their crosstown-rivals, BFN Young Tigers were also held to a 1-1 draw by a resilient Super Eagles while Free State Stars also drew their opening match against Kovsies 2-2.
