South Africa: Jabu's Goal Fails to Lift Osters

13 October 2008


Jabu Mahlangu is disappointed that his goal in Sweden at the weekend failed to help his team Osters IF to overcome Torslanda in their League encounter losing 2-1.

Osters needed maximum points against their opponents on Saturday to keep alive their hopes of automatic promotion into a higher League next season.

Mahlangu scored the equaliser just before half time.

'Shuffle' and his teammates will now have to battle it out in the play-offs with teams from other regions in a bid to avoid remaining in same division again next season.

"I am very disappointed with the result. We needed this victory to avoid going to the play-offs.

"I was supposed to come back home soon but now we have to wait until November to finish the play-offs.

"However, despite losing on Saturday, we are still confident to playing in the Second Division next season," Mhlangu told KickOff.com from Sweden.
